Carl Jackson is an American producer and director known for his work in film and television.
In 2002, Carl Elijah Jackson launched Carl Jackson Entertainment LLC, which has since become a recognized powerhouse in filmmaking. The company’s portfolio boasts several critically acclaimed projects, including the DOVE Foundation-approved Southern Girls, featuring original music by Phil Keaggy, Blissful Lies starring Emmy Award-winning Leann Hunley, Carl Jackson's The Jesus Freak (2017), Carl Jackson's LAX (2021), Carl Jackson's LAX 2 Paris, Love Solutions (2024), and The Coopers: A Jesus Freak Drama (2025).
In 2009, Jackson signed a multi-year production and distribution deal with Bridgestone Multimedia Group. However, due to creative differences, no projects were completed, leading Jackson to establish his own distribution arm. "Southern Girls" was the first film released under Carl Jackson Motion Pictures Studios in 2012. In 2018, he secured a six-year Digital Distribution Licensing Deal with FOX | Tubi, and in 2022, Carl Jackson Studios entered a multi-year, 10-picture deal with Buffalo 8/Bondit Media Capital, as reported by Deadline Hollywood. In 2023, the studio inked a multi-year, global streaming pact with Fawesome, amplifying its digital reach and positioning its content for high-impact visibility across international markets.
Carl Jackson Studios is aggressively expanding its cinematic footprint with a high-profile, multi-genre slate currently in development and production. Leading the charge is P31 starring Alexis Andrews, slated for a wide theatrical release on September 4, 2026. Also set for 2026 is the romantic drama Arthur and Bree, starring breakout scream queen Natasha Tosini alongside international superstar Acha Septriasa, as well as the holiday drama Carl Jackson’s LAX: Holiday in New York starring Andrea McClew.
The 2026 lineup continues with Deadbeat: From Daddy to Rachel, followed by a wave of 2027 titles including the highly anticipated sci-fi tentpole Virtual Time, Carl Jackson’s The Wedding—starring Brazilian film star Amanda de Godoi—Gate 17, and The Well.
Looking ahead, 2028 will see the release of The Alpha Male Chronicles. Rounding out the studio’s forward slate are two major holiday and franchise plays: The Exceptional Santa Claus (2029) and Virtual Time: Heaven and Hell (2030), the epic next chapter in the Virtual Time saga, expanding the studio's sci-fi universe.
Jones, an acclaimed biopic exploring the life and enduring legacy of BET icon Dr. Bobby Jones, is also in development.
Early in his career, Jackson directed music videos for renowned gospel artists such as Angie Winans, Deitrick Haddon, The Rance Allen Group, and Vanessa Bell Armstrong. His work has been featured in the American WOW gospel music compilation DVD series in 2003, 2005, and 2009.
Several of Jackson’s film trailers have garnered impressive attention and chart-topping success. On May 30, 2013, the Strong Black Woman trailer ranked as the tenth most-watched on Apple Trailers, outperforming major studio releases like Fast & Furious 6, Man of Steel, and After Earth. On September 25, 2014, The Journey of L.A. Mass claimed the top spot as the most-watched trailer on the platform. The P31 teaser also soared to number one, remaining in the top 20 family trailers throughout the pandemic. More recently, trailers for LAX 2 Paris and Love Solutions both debuted at number two on Apple TV and iTunes, while Carl Jackson’s LAX premiered at number one on the iTunes Apple chart.
