Phil Lord and Chris Miller

Phil Lord and Chris Miller are American  film and television writers, producers, directors, actors and former animators. Lord and Miller met each other while at Dartmouth College. They are noted for being two of the youngest showrunners  in



the industry at the time.

 In an interview with Robert K. Elder  for his book  The Best Film You've Never Seen, Phil Lord explains that "…in an animated feature, you remake the movie three or four times, and it’s really easy to get bummed out that the way you

 did it before didn’t get green lit, didn’t get paid, and you’re making a totally different version of that movie.”
