The famous screenwriter Ted Elliott (Ted Elliott) was born in 1961 in an ordinary American middle class family. Over the past 20 years, he has written scripts for many of the world’s most famous paintings, including:
Shrek Aladdin and the Pirates of the Caribbean series of science fiction films.
Ted made his film debut in 1989 with the script for the comedy drama Little Monsters alongside Daniel Stern, Howie Mendel and Fred Savage. The main character of this film meets the monster Maurice, who introduces the boy to the world of monsters, constantly bringing trouble to young children. The boy, along with his brother, begins to commit monstrous acts, taking an example from a new friend, causing harm to others, and gradually begins to turn into a monster.
Ted has a regular partner Terry Rossio, with whom he wrote screenplays for some successful American films. Their joint works are: “Puppeters” in 1994, “Godzilla” in 1998, “Road to Eldorado” in 2000. In 2001, Ted Elliott was awarded a BAFTA award and was also nominated for an Oscar for the successful screenplay of the 2001 film Shrek.
In 2004, the writer became a member of the Board of Directors of the Guild of American Writers, but in 2006 he decided to leave the Guild. Later, together with a regular partner, he creates a special website for writers. His latest work is another part of the adventures “Pirates of the Caribbean”, which was given the name “On Stranger Tides”. Despite the fact that the director of the trilogy, as well as the actors who play the main roles in the first three series of the film, refused to participate in the project, the film is a great success with the audience. Filming began in the Hawaiian Islands, so the picture fascinates the beauty of nature.
