Biografia
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.

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.

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.
