Martin Campbell is one of the most revered action directors in the world with credits that include two critically acclaimed James Bond films. Martin directed Pierce Brosnan as the famed British spy James Bond in Golden Eye. Martin was credited with rejuvenating the franchise, grossing more than $350 million worldwide. Martin next helmed The Mask Of Zorro, earning Academy Award and Golden Globe nominations. Martin’s second Bond movie, Casino Royale, is considered one of the best Bond films ever made. Other credits include: Vertical Limits, Beyond Borders, and Edge of Darkness. Most recently Martin directed The Foreigner starring Pierce Brosnan and action star Jackie Chan.
Next, when he helmed Vertical Limit (2000), the film was well received by the critics and earned over $200 million in worldwide box-office sales.
In addition, Campbell is credited with rejuvenating the James Bond franchise when he directed GoldenEye (1995), Pierce Brosnan's first outing as the famed British spy, which went on to gross more than $350 million.
He directed the next Bond feature as well, Casino Royale (2006).
Born in New Zealand, Campbell moved to London where he began his career as a cameraman. He went on to produce the controversial British feature Scum (1979), as well as Black Joy (1977), which was selected for competition at the Cannes Film Festival.
Campbell made his directorial debut on the British police action series "The Professionals" (1977) and continued with the popular BBC series "Shoestring" (1979) and Thames TV's "Minder" (1979)
Considered one of the U.K.'s top directors by the mid-'80s, he directed the highly praised British telefilm, "Reilly: Ace of Spies" (1983). For his work on "Edge of Darkness" (1985), a five-hour BBC miniseries about nuclear contamination in England that depicted murder and high-ranking corruption, he won six BAFTA awards.
Campbell's first Hollywood movie was Criminal Law (1998) and he went on to direct Defenseless (1991) and No Escape (1994).
Some of his American credits include directing HBO's Cast a Deadly Spell (1991) (TV) and two episodes of NBC's "Homicide: Life on the Street" (1993), among others.
