Pat Casey

Biography

Pat Casey is an American screenwriter and producer best known for his long-term creative partnership with Josh Miller. Together, the duo has revitalized the video game adaptation genre, penning the scripts for the blockbuster Sonic the Hedgehog film franchise. They are also the creators of the cult animated series Golan the Insatiable. In 2026, Casey is focused on the release of "Violent Night 2", the sequel to his 2022 holiday action hit. Scheduled for theatrical release on December 4, 2026, the film sees Casey and Miller returning as writers, reuniting with director Tommy Wirkola and star David Harbour. The sequel promises to expand the mythology of the "Viking Santa" character, with Casey teasing the inclusion of the North Pole, Mrs. Claus, and a "western influence" on the narrative. Casey's profile remains high following the massive success of "Sonic the Hedgehog 3" (released late 2024). The film, which introduced the fan-favorite character Shadow (voiced by Keanu Reeves), dominated the global box office well into 2025, cementing Casey and Miller's status as Hollywood's go-to team for action-comedy franchises that balance fan service with mass appeal. He and Miller have been collaborating since their high school days in Minnesota, originally gaining traction with digital shorts before breaking into television and major studio features.
