Daniel Scheinert

Daniel Scheinert (born June 7, 1987) is an American filmmaker and one-half of the filmmaking duo known as the Daniels, alongside Daniel Kwan. He began his career as a director of music videos, including ones for "Houdini" (2012) by Foster the People and "Turn Down for What" (2013) by DJ Snake and Lil Jon, both of which earned Grammy Award nominations. Scheinert co-wrote and co-directed the absurdist comedy dramas Swiss Army Man (2016) and Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022). The latter became A24's highest-grossing film and earned him several accolades, including Academy Awards for Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Original Screenplay.
