Joe Wright

Joe Wright is the acclaimed film director known for single-take shots, redefining cinematic genres and updating classic narratives. He first appeared on the global stage with his feature directorial debut, 'Pride & Prejudice', starring Keira Knightley, followed by a string of celebrated releases that include the seven-time Academy Award-nominated drama 'Atonement', the action-packed thriller 'Hanna' and the biographical drama 'Darkest Hour'. As one of the more technically adventurous and unpredictable directors of his generation, Wright's latest project might be his most ambitious: a new eight-part series documenting the rise of a dictator, 'Mussolini: Son Of The Century'. It has already stirred debate across Europe and beyond since its release, and is regarded by many critics as the best show of 2025 so far.
