Marty Wilson is an internationally awarded Australian film director and writer. His debut feature film Great White was released in 2021 through Universal Pictures, starring Katrina Bowden (30 Rock, Bold and the Beautiful) and Aaron Jakubenko (Tidelands, The Shannara Chronicles).
It took Marty 25 years to turn his dream of becoming a feature film director into a reality. His story is a testament to the enduring power of persistence, consistency, and passion in the pursuit of your dreams.
I have had the pleasure of knowing Marty for several years and he has become one of my favourite people in the world. To me Marty is the epitome of mental toughness and resilience and his unwavering commitment to his dreams is truly inspirational.
