Edgar Howard Wright (born 18 April 1974) is an English filmmaker. He is known for his fast-paced and kinetic, satirical genre films, which feature extensive utilisation of expressive popular music, Steadicam tracking shots, dolly zooms and a signature editing style that includes transitions, whip pans and wipes. He first made independent short films before making his first feature film, A Fistful of Fingers, in 1995. Wright created and directed the comedy series Asylum in 1996, written with David Walliams. After directing several other television shows, Wright directed the sitcom Spaced (1999–2001), which aired for two series and starred frequent collaborators Simon Pegg and Nick Frost. In 2004, Wright directed the zombie comedy Shaun of the Dead, starring Pegg and Frost, the first film in Wright's Three Flavours Cornetto trilogy. The film was co-written with Pegg—as were the next two entries in the trilogy, the buddy cop film Hot Fuzz (2007) and the science fiction comedy The World's End (2013). In 2010, Wright co-wrote and directed the action comedy film Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, an adaptation of the graphic novel series. Along with Joe Cornish and Steven Moffat, he adapted The Adventures of Tintin (2011) for Steven Spielberg. Wright and Cornish co-wrote the screenplay for the Marvel Cinematic Universe film Ant-Man in 2015, which Wright intended to direct but abandoned, citing creative differences. He has also written and directed the action film Baby Driver (2017), the documentary The Sparks Brothers, and the psychological horror film Last Night in Soho (both 2021).
John Constantine is one of the world's most powerful mages. But that power comes at a cost. Nearly destroyed by its temptations in his youth, he knows the price of magic's corrupting influence all too well. He fights the battle to maintain balance and prevent anyone from becoming too powerful. That battle's about to become a war. A deadly cabal of sorcerers is on the hunt for a mystical artifact that will allow them access to any magical resource on Earth. Now Constantine's in a race around the globe and against time to stop them. Along the way, he'll encounter supernatural forces even more dangerous than himself --- from the wrath of the Specter to the power of Shazam. Only Constantine can save the world from the cold flame of evil --- but everyone he cares about may be lost in the process.
