ABOUT THE FILM Makers
KEN COLE
DIRECTOR / PRODUCER
Ken Cole is a filmmaker whose work spans documentary, narrative, and experimental cinema. He made his PBS debut with Tornado Glory (2006) and served as the showrunner for the award-winning series Tornado Chasers (2013). A trained meteorologist and accomplished storm chaser, Cole brings firsthand knowledge of extreme weather to his films, blending scientific insight with human drama. He has chased alongside Reed Timmer for over two decades, giving him unprecedented access to the storm-chasing subculture and personally wrangling a massive 20-year archive of historical footage for the film. His work often explores resilience, curiosity, and the extraordinary in everyday life.
MICHAEL MCGRALE
EXECUTIVE PRODUCER
Michael McGrale is an in-demand writer and producer known for his high-profile Hollywood collaborations. He recently served as a writer and co-producer on the hit thriller The Rip, starring Ben Affleck and Matt Damon. Currently, McGrale is writing Caine, the upcoming John Wick action spin-off directed by and starring Donnie Yen. His involvement as an Executive Producer on Never Stop Chasing bridges the gap between gripping documentary reality and premium blockbuster entertainment.
KAM STOCKS
Co-PRODUCER
Kam Stocks is a Chicago-based producer with a background spanning studio entertainment and award-winning media. He began his career in Los Angeles, working across independent projects and studio properties for Disney Entertainment Television and The Walt Disney Studios—where his time alongside the late Bill Paxton forged a serendipitous connection to the storm-chasing legacy of Twister. During a decorated 14-year tenure as Creative Director at the University of Oklahoma, Stocks spearheaded digital initiatives earning several ADDY Awards. As Co-Producer on Never Stop Chasing, he combined his seasoned storytelling instincts and decades of project management to execute the film’s ambitious vision.
MATTHEW WILLARD
Editor
Matthew Willard brings a wealth of blockbuster post-production experience to Never Stop Chasing, having edited and contributed to major studio franchises including Men in Black: International, The Fate of the Furious, and the Disney+ series Star Wars: Skeleton Crew. As lead editor on Never Stop Chasing, Willard faced the monumental task of wrestling a staggering 22-camera verité setup into a cohesive, fast-paced, and emotionally resonant cinematic narrative.
LEO BIRENBERG & ZACH ROBINSON
COMPOSERS
Leo Birenberg and Zach Robinson are Emmy-winning and Grammy-nominated composers widely known for their action-packed, genre-bending scores on hit series like Cobra Kai and Twisted Metal, as well as Weird: The Al Yankovic Story. For Never Stop Chasing, the duo crafted a highly thematic, nearly 80-minute original score utilizing world-class musicians, including the Budapest Scoring Orchestra.
