Bryan Buckley (born September 3, 1963 in Massachusetts) is an American film and commercial director and screenwriter.
Bryan Buckley, co-owner of Hungry Man Productions, has directed more than 40 Super Bowl commercials over the last decade. He directed the short doc No Autographs.


Commercial Director Bryan Buckley has been dubbed "King of the Superbowl" by the New York Times, directing over 40 commercials for the big game since 2000. In addition to winning over 40 Cannes Lions, he has earned six Emmy nominations and the distinction of being named Commercial Director of the Decade in a 2010 Adweek Readers Poll. Creativity Magazine has also named him one of the 50 Best Creative Minds of the last 25 years. Numerous pieces of Buckley's work have been inducted into the permanent collection at the Museum of Modern Art in New York for their cultural relevance, and he has been honored by the Directors Guild of America as the Commercial Director of the Year.

2012 has brought the tremendous success of Buckley's short film "ASAD." The film was shot in Africa with an all-Somali cast of refugees and was honored as the Best Narrative Short at the 2012 TriBeCa Film Festival. Since then, "ASAD" has been touring the globe and winning awards at the LA Film Festival, Michael Moore's Traverse City Film Festival and the Rhode Island International Film Festival, to name a few.

In 2013, Buckley will direct his feature film debut with the comedy "Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus," starring Reese Witherspoon. The film is an adaptation of Dr. John Gray's classic guide to relationships, which has sold more copies than any other non-fiction book, aside from the Bible and Koran.

In 1997, with partner Hank Perlman, Buckley co-founded the commercial production company Hungry Man in New York. By 2004, the company had won the prestigious Palme D'Or at the Cannes Lions advertising festival, the award presented to the top commercial production company in the world. Hungry Man is the only company to be ranked in the top 10 at Cannes for more than 10 consecutive years.

The loves of his life are his three children. Bryan has dedicated every hour of every day to never seeing their Facebook pages.
