M. Night Shyamalan

 is the director and one of the executive producers of Servant.

His career — largely one in film — stretches back to the late 20th century. Known primarily for making suspenseful dramas bordering on horror, he gained notoriety with The Sixth Sense, a film that garnered him an Academy Award nomination for both writing and directing. Critical notice of Signs was also significant — and he was nominated for an Annie Award for his writing on Stuart Little.
