Tony Grisoni tells urgent tales of the weird. He moves between film, series, art & protest — always with mischief & humanity.

His recent work includes 2073, a visionary collaboration with director Asif Kapadia exploring today's interrelated threats of right-wing populism, techno-authoritarianism, and climate collapse.

Grisoni's acclaimed series credits include The City & The City (BBC Two), Crazy Diamond (Channel 4), The Young Pope(HBO), and the haunting Southcliffe (Channel 4), which was praised as "spellbinding and terrifying." He also wrote Samantha Morton's directorial debut, The Unloved (BAFTA winner, 2009) and adapted David Peace's Yorkshire Noir Red Riding quartet - "Red Riding delves deep into darkness and corruption, leaving viewers with a profound, albeit unsettling, experience." - David Thomson.

His long-standing collaborations with directors include co-writing Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas, Tideland, and The Man Who Killed Don Quixote with Terry Gilliam, and In This World with Michael Winterbottom, which won the Golden Bear at the 2002 Berlinale.

Grisoni has also worked across film, art, and performance, partnering with artists such as Oona Grimes, Marcia Farquhar and Brian Catling (RIP). His short films include the BAFTA-nominated Kingsland #1 The Dreamer, The Pizza Miracle and The Sands Of Venus.

He began his career writing Queen Of Hearts, which won the Grand Prix at the Festival du Film de Paris, 1989.

A passionate mentor, he supports writers through the Netflix / Tatino Films Accelerator initiative, Torino Film Lab, Le Groupe Ouest, the European Writers Club, and the Filmmakers Stammtisch.
