Biography
Reginald Stephen Traviss is an English film director and screenwriter born 12 February 1977. He entered public consciousness in 2006 when his debut feature Joy Division premiered theatrically in the UK, a World War Two drama featuring Ed Stoppard, Bernard Hill, Tom Schilling, Bernadette Heerwagen and Ricci Harnett. Two years later, Traviss released Psychosis, a psychological thriller starring Charisma Carpenter, Ricci Harnett and Justin Hawkins, deepening his reputation for character-driven genre work. In 2011, he directed Screwed, a prison drama adapted from the 2008 non-fiction book by former prison guard Ronnie Thompson; the film's UK theatrical release showcased Noel Clarke, James D'Arcy, Frank Harper and Kate Magowan. Traviss works primarily as a screenwriter and director, crafting narratives rooted in institutional and historical settings. Born under Aquarius, his work often reflects that sign's preoccupation with systems and social contradiction. As a British filmmaker, Traviss emerged during a period of strong UK independent cinema.
