Dave Green

Dave is obsessed with making cinematic comedy. He has an unbridled passion for finding absurdity in the ordinary world, and for delivering ridiculous ideas with a straight face. He most recently directed the feature film COYOTE V. ACME, starring Will Forte and John Cena, amidst a hybrid cast of 2D animated characters. A courtroom thriller starring the Looney Tunes, the film is a tonal and spiritual homage to WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT. Dave also directed EARTH TO ECHO (Disney/Relativity) and TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES: OUT OF THE SHADOWS, for Producer Michael Bay. TOOTHPIX, an anthology of 12 second shorts parodying the LA food scene, was dedicated to food critic Jonathan Gold’s writing, and was adapted into a series for TBS with Tim and Eric’s AbsoLutely and David Gelb’s Supper Club. He’s directed a series of viral shorts, music videos, and commercials detailing his unique talent in mashing up genres and turning them upside down, including the Sam Raimi produced ZOMBIE ROADKILL, and MELTDOWN, a short film starring David Cross. He’s interested in puppets, food, sight gags, and spaghetti. He takes himself extremely seriously.
