More on McG
Description from Wikipedia:
Joseph "McG" McGinty Nichol (born August 9, 1968) is an American film and television producer and director. He was born in Kalamazoo, Michigan.
With a psychology degree from UC Irvine, McG started as a still photographer in the music business, shooting local bands and musicians with whom he was friendly. He helped produce the debut album by Sugar Ray, Lemonade and Brownies. Eventually, this led him to direct music videos, namely many for Korn.
His films (as director) include Charlie's Angels, Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle and We Are Marshall. His television series include Fastlane, The O.C., Supernatural, Chuck and Pussycat Dolls Present: Search for the Next Doll.
He has, according to the producers, signed on to direct the next installment of the Terminator franchise: Terminator Salvation. He is also due to start work on an American version of Spaced, but without the consent or contribution of the original makers Simon Pegg, Edgar Wright or Jessica Stevenson; it will follow the same basic concept of the English version, but has been derided by fans of the original series for this lack of involvement from the creators.
In 2008, McG will venture into new media, executive producing two original online series for The WB Television Network's new online portal. One of the series, "Sorority Forever," is produced in conjunction with Big Fantastic, the creators of the online series "Prom Queen."
