TV/AMC, while wrapping up as the highest-rated original series in
Sundance TV history.

Mickle is also known for his highly acclaimed Netflix fantasy show
Sweet Tooth. Currently, he's working on a live-action Gundam movie for
Netflix, based on the renowned anime. It will feature a star-studded
cast including Sydney Sweeney and Noah Centineo.
