Biografía
JOHN LOGAN is an acclaimed Tony Award-winning dramatist and Academy Award®-nominated screenwriter, whose works span a multitude of genres, from dramas and comedies, to action and animated films. Logan is often hailed for his remarkable ability to capture the voice of the character while transporting viewers into accessible worlds rich with color. Logan‘s films have garnered a worldwide box office total of nearly $2 billion—making him one of the most successful and sought-after screenwriters in the industry.
In January 2012, the Weinstein Company released John Logan‘s modern-day film adaptation of Shakespeare‘s Coriolanus, a tragedy based on the life of the legendary Roman leader, Gaius Marcius Coriolanus. Ralph Fiennes directs and stars in the film, opposite Gerard Butler, Vanessa Redgrave and Jessica Chastain.
Logan also wrote The James Bond film, Skyfall with Daniel Craig reprising the role of the title character, and also stars Javier Bardem and Ralph Fiennes, with Sam Mendes directing.

In 2000, Logan earned global recognition and his first Academy Award® nomination for Best Original Screenplay for Gladiator, which went on to win five Oscars®, including Best Picture. The script, which illustrated Logan‘s ability to combine visceral action sequences with poetic tenderness, earned Logan both BAFTA and WGA nominations.

The film received a total of 11 nominations and five wins, and resulted in BAFTA, WGA and Golden Globe nominations for Logan.
