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).

Adaptación del videojuego "Spider-Man: Web of Shadows". Nueva York está en caos, y todo comenzó cuando Peter Parker, alias Spider-Man, se infecta accidentalmente con un simbionte alienígena durante una batalla. Al principio, el simbionte potencia sus habilidades, dándole fuerza y agilidad sobrehumanas, pero pronto Peter nota cambios en su personalidad. El simbionte lo vuelve más violento e impulsivo, empujándolo hacia un lado oscuro que apenas logra controlar. Al darse cuenta de la influencia corruptora del simbionte, Peter lucha por liberarse de su control. En un acto desesperado, logra separarse del simbionte, pero este encuentra un nuevo huésped en Eddie Brock, transformándolo en Venom. Con su nueva fuerza, Venom desata un ejército de simbiontes sobre Nueva York, convirtiendo a ciudadanos y superhéroes en versiones monstruosas y descontroladas de sí mismos. Spider-Man, ahora enfrentado no solo a Venom sino a todo su ejército, se alía con héroes como Wolverine, Luke Cage y Black Cat para salvar a la ciudad. La situación se vuelve crítica cuando Venom empieza a dominar la ciudad. Con el destino de Nueva York en juego, Spider-Man debe confrontar a Venom en una batalla final, usando todas sus habilidades y alianzas para detener la propagación del simbionte y salvar a la ciudad. Al final de la película, vemos a Norman tomando el suero del Duende por estar garvemente herido tras un ataque de Venom.
