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).

Barry Allen strains against Weather Wizard’s storm. He’s slower—has been for eight months—since Wally vanished into Speed defeating Savitar. Barry wins, barely. He doesn’t celebrate. He hunts. Crime has learned to fear him. Then Lorre Morning appears—Time Trapper—freezing bullets, bridges, hearts mid-beat. Twisted by Savitar’s storm, he can freeze anything in time. Barry is pushed and pushed. When Lorre tries to kill a little girl, Barry lets go. Lightning. Silence. Lorre dies. Barry breaks. He locks himself inside the Speed Force, meditating in endless lightning, refusing the world. Months pass until Jay Garrick reaches him: someone is siphoning the Speed Force. From Barry’s Earth. A name echoes—Godspeed. Barry returns. Firestorm, Atom, and Green Arrow stand with him at a Dark Speed Force–corrupted warehouse. A vortex rages. Barry is struck—thrown through time. Four months ago. Lorre’s death. Godspeed stands over him. “You did this.” Barry is forced to relive the kill—again and again—each loop ending in lightning and regret. He finally surges, cracks Godspeed’s mask. August Hart. Lorre’s half brother. August sobs—he’s studied timelines for months. Every change ends with Lorre dead. “There’s always another way!” Barry holds him. “I lost my brother too.” August lets go. He returns the stolen speed; the vortex collapses to steel and silence. One month later, Ryan Choi calls Barry back. “We could reignite it. Bring Wally home.” At the end of time an evil smile waits. Thawne.
