The Nelms Brothers have written and directed numerous award-winning and critically acclaimed films. With each of their endeavors exuding a unique look and feel, the Nelms Brothers are known for their ability to traverse from one genre to another, seamlessly, from drama to comedy to thrillers. Their film, LOST ON PURPOSE (2013), was a heartfelt coming-of-age love letter to their small hometown. From there, the siblings wrote and directed WAFFLE STREET (2015), a comedic turn based on an autobiographical memoir about a billion-dollar hedge-fund manager turned waffle house server starring James Lafferty and Danny Glover. Their film, SMALL TOWN CRIME (2018) is a crime thriller that premiered at SXSW and BFI London Film Festival and received positive reviews by top critics upon its theatrical release. It featured a stellar ensemble cast that included John Hawkes, Anthony Anderson, Octavia Spencer, Robert Forster, Clifton Collins Jr., Michael Vartan, and Caity Lotz. Their next film, FATMAN (2020), starred Mel Gibson, Walton Goggins, and Marianne Jean- Baptiste, and centers on a neglected and precocious 12-year-old who hires an unorthodox hitman to kill Santa Claus after receiving a lump of coal in his stocking.
In January 2021,” Everyone is Doing Great,” a comedy television series created by actors/producers James Lafferty and Stephen Colletti and executive produced by the NelmsBrothers, was acquired and released by Hulu (U.S.) and Paramount+ (international territories).
