Gregory Hoblit - Biography

Gregory Hoblit was born in Texas but moved to Northern California at a young age because of his father's job in law enforcement, a hint at what might have attracted the mystery/courtroom plots of his movie/TV credits. After graduating from UCLA, he worked as a TV co-producer with Steven Bochco until directing the 80s series, Capitaine Furillo (1981) and La loi de Los Angeles (1986). He made his film directorial debut with the psychological thriller, Peur primale (1996), followed by Le témoin du mal (1998), Fréquence interdite (2000) and the WWII drama, Mission évasion (2002), starring Bruce Willis.
