Anna Zielinski

Anna Zielinski’s been grinding away in the faith-based and family film game for over 15 years, all at Pinnacle Peak Pictures—yeah, loyalty like that’s rare these days. She’s not just churning out stuff, either; we’re talking legit, crowd-pleasing movies and TV that actually connect with people all over the globe. She kicked off her producing run back in 2010, teaming up with David A.R. White and Pure Flix to drop Marriage Retreat, a comedy with Jeff Fahey and Victoria Jackson. Didn’t take her long to crank out more: Me Again with Della Reese hit in 2011, then Apostle Peter and The Last Supper alongside Robert Loggia. By 2012, she was already bossing things around on the GMC Network pilot Brotha White, and boom—her directorial debut came the next year with The Book of Daniel (with Lance Henriksen, no less). 2014 kinda blew the doors off for her—she produced God’s Not Dead, which straight-up dominated the indie box office that year, hauling in $60 million. Not like she coasted after that either. Dancer and the Dame (Billy Gardell’s in it) and sitcom Hitting The Breaks (hello Rob Schneider and Tim Tebow) kept her busy. Fast forward to 2021, she’s producing and directing Courting Mom & Dad with Scott Baio and Kristy Swanson. She’s jumped into exec producer gigs lately with stuff like The Encounter and Sons of Thunder: Redemption. More recent flicks? Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters (2022), Nothing’s Impossible (2023), Revelation Road: The Series, and she circled back to God’s Not Dead with In God We Trust (2024). Bottom line, Anna’s been steering the ship for faith-based movies and series for years—and somehow, she keeps leveling up.
