Oliver BUTCHER

After completing a literature degree, Oliver Butcher began his career in documentaries and advertising, before selling his first movie project to George Harrison’s HandMade Films in 1988. Since then, he has worked as a screenwriter for all the major US studios. He began by writing comedies (Dr. Jekyll and Ms. Hyde - 1995), until focusing on his real enthusiasm - thrillers. 2011’s ’Unknown’ starring Liam Neeson, written in collaboration with Stephen Cornwell, was one of his last studio credit, with their new film ‘Message From The King’ released in 2017. Most recently, Oliver wrote a pilot episode for ’Woman Of The Dead’ (a series based on Bernhard Aichner’s bestselling thriller for A&E/Lifetime) and the Bible and two episodes of a new serie, ‘Faceless’ with Virginie BRAC.
