About Dust Bunny

In visionary creator Bryan Fuller’s (“Hannibal,” “Pushing Daisies”) fantastical and wickedly inventive feature directorial debut Dust Bunny, a 10-year-old girl joins forces with her hit man neighbor to confront each other’s monsters.

Ten-year-old Aurora has a mysterious neighbor (Mads Mikkelsen) who kills real-life monsters. He’s a hit man for hire. So, when Aurora needs help killing the monster she believes ate her entire family, she procures his services. Suspecting that her parents may have fallen victim to assassins gunning for him, Aurora’s neighbor guiltily takes the job. Now, to protect her, he’ll need to battle an onslaught of assassins ― and accept that some monsters are real. 

World Premiere at Toronto International Film Festival.

About the Guest

BRYAN FULLER (Writer, Director, Producer)

Bryan Fuller is an acclaimed American screenwriter, producer and director known for creating some of the most visually inventive and narratively daring series in modern television. Over the past two decades, he has developed a cult following for his signature blend of dark humor, stylized aesthetics, and emotionally rich storytelling.

Fuller began his television career writing for Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and Star Trek: Voyager, establishing himself as a distinctive voice in science fiction. He went on to create and executive produce a string of genre-defining series, including the Emmy winning Pushing Daisies, the surreal afterlife drama Dead Like Me, and the beloved cult hit Wonderfalls.

His work on Hannibal, a critically acclaimed re-imagining of the Hannibal Lecter mythology, pushed the boundaries of network television with its operatic visuals, psychological depth, and bold storytelling. Fuller also served a co-creator and show runner of American Gods, and was the original creator of Star Trek: Discovery, helping to relaunch the iconic franchise for a new era.

His feature directorial debut, Dust Bunny, starring Mads Mikkelsen and Sigourney Weaver, is being distributed by Lionsgate and Roadside Attractions this December. It is the story of a little girl who hires a hitman to kill a monster that lives under her bed. It is a wonderful combination of Bryan’s sensibilities and incredible imagination.

His work continues to inspire audiences with original, emotional resonance, and visual artistry.
