Summary

Australian screenwriter and executive producer who trained at Swinburne University and the Victorian College of the Arts after beginning in copywriting and journalism. He has worked in scripted development at Matchbox Pictures across projects including The Family Law, Glitch, Barracuda, Nowhere Boys, Seven Types of Ambiguity and multiple seasons of Wanted. Macrae later created and wrote Irreverent, a crime comedy-drama about an American criminal hiding in a small Queensland community while posing as a reverend. His career shows broad genre and development experience, but no clear public record of political activism, DEI advocacy, culture-war statements or a sustained identity-driven creative brand.
