British-American director Dylan Holmes Williams originally set his sights on a career in the music industry. As a teenager, he was a member of the indie band Pull In Emergency, which was founded in 2007 and released a self-titled album in 2010. However, the group split up in 2011 as those involved headed off to university. While completing an undergraduate degree in the history of art, Holmes Williams became interested in filmmaking; he started making music videos and working as an editor. In 2017, he turned his attention to writing and directing several short films, which began to garner critical acclaim. Holmes Williams found work as a commercial director, and he was soon hired to direct episodes of the American horror series Servant, the first of which were broadcast in 2022. His next assignment was on the 2024 season of Doctor Who, directing the folk horror-tinged 73 Yards and the social media satire Dot And Bubble for Ncuti Gatwa as the Fifteenth Doctor. Holmes Williams will also be the director of a forthcoming five-part Doctor Who spin-off entitled The War Between The Land And The Sea.
