Adam McKay
Adam McKay ist ein US-amerikanischer Drehbuchautor, Produzent und Regisseur. Er begann seine Karriere als Chefautor der NBC-Sketch-Comedy-Show „Saturday Night Live“ (SNL), die er von 1995 bis 2001 leitete. Nach seinem Ausscheiden bei SNL arbeitete McKay mit dem Komiker Will Ferrell an dessen Komödien „Anchorman – Die Legende von Ron Burgundy“ (2004), „Ricky Bobby – König der Rennfahrer“ (2006) und „Die etwas anderen Cops“ (2010). Später schrieben und produzierten Ferrell und McKay gemeinsam zahlreiche Fernsehserien und Filme. McKay war zudem über ihre Produktionsfirma Gary Sanchez Productions Koproduzent ihrer Website Funny or Die.
Neben seiner Arbeit mit Ferrell schrieb und inszenierte McKay die satirischen Filme „The Big Short“ (2015), „Vice“ (2018) und „Don’t Look Up“ (2021). McKay gewann einen Oscar, einen BAFTA und einen Critics' Choice Award für die Adaption des Drehbuchs zu „The Big Short“. 2019 gründete McKay die Produktionsfirma Hyperobject Industries.
