About

This is Georgi. AKA Georgi Banks-Davies / GBD.

...I'm a filmmaker. 

I'm lucky enough to say it's all I have ever been, well, since I walked out of a cinema for the first time at the age of 4.

My TV directing debut was Sky Atlantic's I HATE SUZIE, co-created by Lucy Prebble and Billie Piper, for which I won a BAFTA for directing. Ridic. Next, I directed PAPER GIRLS for Amazon about four time-travelling teenage girls being general badasses. It's basically the show I wish I had seen growing up. 

I got to build and lead direct the multi-world extravaganza, KAOS for Netflix, set in the world of the Greek Myths. Starring Jeff Golblum as Zeus. What a bonkers ride. 

I have most recently completed directing the entire series of THE NIGHT MANAGER 2, with a dream cast. It's a massive, global adventure with Tom Hiddleston back in the lead role, as Le Carre's brilliant Jonathan Pine. Released Jan '26 on BBC and Amazon. 

I've also made quite a few short films. With GARFIELD, I achieved my dream of playing in competition at Sundance 2018. I'm also super proud to be alumni of the BFI/ BAFTA Flare cohort, and a 2021 BAFTA Breakthrough.

I've also have, and still make loads of ads all over the world for all sorts of brands. And love it.

My debut feature is in development... so some other 4 year old can sneak into a cinema, see it, and start their journey into movie making.
