Tony Gilroy

I think what I've recognized over the years is that I'm very, very bingey, extremely bingey when it comes to writing.

I love the idea of spies in love. How would it work between two people who were so programmed to lie and be suspicious, who have a whole life based on pretence?

I have written a bunch of scripts that have not gotten produced, much more so early in my career than later.

I don't like to get in front of people.

It takes a lot out of you to do a one-hour episodic lead of a show. I don't think actors realize that when they take the job.

My background is in filmmaking, and my mentor is Dusan Makavejev, who combined fiction and documentary.
