Geeta Vasant Patel (born December 22, 1975)[1] is an American film and television director, screenwriter, and producer best known for her work on Meet the Patels (2014), House of the Dragon (2022), and Ahsoka (2023).

Career

In the early 2000s, Patel began her career by serving as an assistant writer on The Beast, The Fast and the Furious, Blue Crush, The Rundown, and Mindhunters.[2] In 2008, she made her directorial debut with the documentary film Project Kashmir.[3][4] In 2014, she directed and wrote her second documentary, Meet the Patels, with her brother Ravi V. Patel.[5] In October 2015, Fox Searchlight acquired the rights to remake the film, with the Patel siblings set to co-write and co-direct.[6][7]

In the 2010s, she directed episodes of Independent Lens, Sense8, The Mindy Project, Survivor's Remorse, Superstore, The Mick, Fresh Off the Boat, Speechless, Champions, Atypical, Santa Clarita Diet, Chambers, Dead to Me, Sweetbitter, and Runaways.[8][6][9] In the following decade, she worked on the television series The Magicians, The Great, and P-Valley.[2]

In January 2020, Patel was recruited to direct episodes 6 and 7 of The Witcher season 2,[10] but, in October, it was revealed that Patel was replaced by Louise Hooper, due to scheduling conflicts and refusing to be committed to a months-long stay in the United Kingdom, after production was suspended due to the COVID-19.[11] In October 2022, she directed "The Lord of the Tides", the eighth episode of House of the Dragon.[12] In 2023, she directed an episode of the Star Wars series Ahsoka.[13] She is set to direct and executive produce multiple episodes of the upcoming streaming series Under the Bridge,[14] which is set to be released on April 17, 2024.[15]
