Sarah Bishop joins Revolver’s roster of directors
Revolver has signed Sarah Bishop to its roster of directors.
A quadruple threat, Bishop is well known as a director, writer, actress and producer and general overachiever.
She is one third of the comedy trio Skit Box who have achieved over 150 million hits online for several viral videos including the parody song ‘Activewear.’ Their new ABC TV comedy show Wham Bam Thank You Ma’am was released in 2017 and was a U.S. co-production with NBC Universal.
Bishop studied comedy at Amy Poehler’s Upright Citizen’s Brigade school in Los Angeles, and filmmaking under her mentor Monte Hellman (an iconic 70’s director of Two Lane Blacktop, and executive producer of Reservoir Dogs) Additionally, she has gained years of experience in performance and comic timing in front of the camera as an actor, and turned to directing herself 3 years ago.
She is currently in development with RevLover Films, ABC and Screen Australia for numerous film and television projects.
Bishop is already signed to Will O’Rourke for more unconventional projects, and Revolver found quickly that her brand of comedy lends itself perfectly to TV commercials, as can be seen on the reel. She’s also the same height as Cameron Diaz.

Did we just mention the signing of a new female director and then list her measurements are the same as Cameron Diaz? Would we do that in a press release about a new male director? Industry. Pls try harder
Measurements? Her height was mentioned – hardly what you’re implying by using the word “measurements”.
You might have noticed that statement came immediately after the one about her brand of comedy – so it’s possible, that maybe, just a tiny possibility, that the Cameron Diaz reference was thrown in as a bit of a joke. No?
I think you’d find this press release was probably written by Sarah herself. She’s trying to add a bit of charm and wit to this piece, perhaps to re-inforce the fact that she is focused on comedy.
A nice counterpoint to your tone-deaf and humourless post, in fact.
