IMDbProStarmeterSee rank
Brent McCorkle has loved movies for as long as he can remember. As kids, he and his brother stopped counting after they had seen Star Wars forty times. Brent's films are known for their heart-felt and visually compelling story-telling - including an award-winning film that caught the eye of Steven Spielberg, landing him a subsequent first-look deal with DreamWorks and Fox Television.

Brent's feature film directorial debut was the biographical drama "Unconditional", for which he wrote, directed, edited and co-composed the score. He was also an editor and composer on Universal Pictures sports drama "Woodlawn". Brent's latest film project is Lionsgate's biographical drama "I Can Only Imagine", for which he co-wrote, co-edited, composed the score, and was second-unit director.

Brent's recent narrative work has garnered favorable mentions in publications such as Variety, The Hollywood Reporter and MovieMaker. He also has been nominated for and won numerous awards.

Brent currently resides in Birmingham, Alabama with his wife of twenty-two years, and their five children.
