Jonathan Perry (born July 21, 2001) is an American filmmaker and screenwriter. Starting at age 13, Jonathan wrote short film scripts, the copyright to which he found could be sold through online message boards. He is best known for his arctic film Subnivean (2019), which garnered critical acclaim and was subsequently acquired by Amazon Prime Video for international distribution; making him "the youngest director on any streaming service" at the age of 17. The young filmmaker challenged and overcame COVID-19 restrictions with his large-scale production of Crookery (2021). Perry is currently in post-production for his most groundbreaking film to date, Sentinelese (2023), which is the first-ever live action film made about the anthropological subject matter.
