Guy Ritchie: The Filmmaking Maverick
Move over Quentin Tarantino, Ron Howard, and Martin Scorsese, there’s a new name in town and it’s none other than the British filmmaker, director, writer, and producer Guy Stuart Ritchie. This guy’s path to filmmaking stardom was anything but ordinary. He ditched school as a teen to work odd jobs in films before making his way to directing commercials. But it wasn’t until the turn of the century that he hit the big time with the film Snatch, featuring a powerhouse cast including Brad Pitt, Jason Statham, and Benicio del Toro. And the hits just kept on coming with other successful films like the first two Sherlock Holmes movies starring Robert Downey, Jr. But alas, he won’t be directing the third installment, as confirmed by Screen Rant. However, he did make a triumphant return with the live-action Aladdin in 2019. Guy Ritchie, the filmmaking maverick, has definitely made his mark in the industry.
