Robert Edwards is a writer/director whose most recent film, One More Time, starring Christopher Walken and Amber Heard, premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival in 2015. A graduate of Stanford University’s Masters Program in Documentary Film, Edwards won a 2001 Nicholl Fellowship in Screenwriting from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for his first script, Land of the Blind, which, in 2006, became his directorial debut, starring Ralph Fiennes and Donald Sutherland.
As a screenwriter, he has written scripts for directors such as Bennett Miller, Mark Romanek, and Ray Tintori, and is currently at work on a 7-part miniseries about the Flying Tigers for executive producer John Woo. For his next film, Edwards is developing The Bomb in My Garden – based on his adaptation of the memoir of the chief scientist in Saddam Hussein’s uranium enrichment program – with Johnny Depp’s production company, Infinitum Nihil.
