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).
Mara Blake (Jessica Rothe) is an audio archivist with a glitch in her reality: when she touches someone, she hears the future—fractured soundscapes, neon visions, and emotional echoes that make no sense until they matter most. Her older sister Eliza (the hyper-organized genius with a secret past) has spent years trying to contain Mara’s chaos, ever since a childhood incident cracked time wide open. But when rogue sonic engineer Dr. Voss begins weaponizing sound itself—turning frequencies into mind-altering tech—Mara is forced to team up with her ex-partner Cass “Loop” Virelli (also Kaley Cuoco), a pirate broadcaster who thrives on glitchy rebellion. Alongside Zoey, a high school prodigy whose feral inventions somehow work, and Milo, the dry-witted realist immune to Mara’s touch, they form a crew of misfits trying to decode the pulse that links them all to the future. Together, they stumble through frequency heists, sonic wormholes, and emotional rewinds, discovering that their family’s connection to time and sound runs deeper than they ever imagined. As reality begins to skip like a broken mixtape, Mara must learn to dance with chaos instead of fighting it—before the future rewrites them all. Touchwave is a genre-bending sci-fi comedy about sisterhood, second chances, and the strange music of time. Think Russian Doll meets Scott Pilgrim with a splash of Eternal Sunshine—where every mistake echoes louder, and every glitch is a clue.
