Bruno Heller
Bruno Heller (born 13 January 1960) is a British screenwriter, producer and director. He is known for creating the HBO television series Rome, the CBS television series The Mentalist, and the FOX television series Gotham, based on the Batman franchise, co-creating the Gotham prequel television series Pennyworth, based on the Batman and V for Vendetta franchises, for Epix and HBO Max.
Heller's father, Lukas, was a German Jewish emigre and screenwriter (Hush… Hush, Sweet Charlotte, What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?). His mother, Caroline (née Carter), was an English Quaker and instrumental in keeping up the Labour Party's "Save London Transport Campaign". He has three siblings, one older, Lucy, and 2 younger Emily and Zoë, a columnist and writer who has published three novels, including Notes on a Scandal.
Heller graduated from the University of Sussex.
Heller was a union soundman working in England in the 1980s. While working as a soundman on a series of films about England's Miners' Strike, Heller met Portuguese director Eduardo Guedes. The two collaborated on what would become Heller's first writing credit, the 1994 film pax starring Amanda Plummer.
He left England for New York, where he met his wife, Miranda Cowley. After five years in the city, Heller moved with his family to Los Angeles where he worked on various television dramas including two projects for the USA Network: Touching Evil (American TV series) and The Huntress. But his breakthrough came with Rome, which he co-created. After the cancellation of that series for its high costs, Heller created The Mentalist. In September 2012, Heller sold a legal drama named The Advocates to CBS, which was written and executive produced by him, but the project finally did not go to series.[clarification needed] In 2014 Heller created a TV series based on the Batman character James Gordon called Gotham for Fox Broadcasting Company.
Along with John Milius and William J. Macdonald, Heller created the television series Rome, co-produced by HBO and the BBC. Heller was also an executive producer and head writer, writing 11 episodes for the series, including the pilot episode and the series finale.
The series primarily chronicles the lives and deeds of the rich, powerful, and "historically significant", yet it also focuses on the lives, fortunes, families, and acquaintances of two common men: Lucius Vorenus and Titus Pullo, two Roman soldiers mentioned historically in Caesar's Commentarii de Bello Gallico. The fictionalised Vorenus and Pullo manage to witness and often influence many of the historical events presented in the series.
