Nick Ward

Nick Ward is currently one of New Zealand’s most prolific writers.

His first film Stickmen sold to 26 countries around the world and is widely quoted as a favorite New Zealand film. It won awards for best director, best actor, best supporting actor and best screenplay at the NZ film awards. But most importantly it was the springboard that helped Nick make the move to becoming a full-time writer.

Nick’s most recent film Second Hand Wedding has just become New Zealand’s 7th highest grossing local film, just in front of Goodbye Pork Pie.  He has also written episodes and developed storylines for New Zealand’s favourite TV series Outrageous Fortune. His latest film is currently shooting in Auckland now staring Rhys Darby and a duck.
