Chicago, Illinois, USA:
Robert Lee Zemeckis (nato il 14 maggio 1952) è un regista, produttore e sceneggiatore statunitense, noto per aver diretto alcuni dei film più celebri del cinema americano contemporaneo. Ha iniziato a farsi conoscere negli anni Ottanta grazie alla commedia d'avventura All'inseguimento della pietra verde (1984), prima di raggiungere il successo internazionale con Ritorno al futuro (1985) e i suoi sequel Ritorno al futuro - Parte II (1989) e Ritorno al futuro - Parte III (1990). Nel 1988 ha diretto Chi ha incastrato Roger Rabbit, innovativa combinazione di animazione e live action che ha ottenuto un grande successo di pubblico e critica. Negli anni Novanta ha ampliato il proprio repertorio dedicandosi anche a film drammatici, tra cui La morte ti fa bella (1992), Forrest Gump (1994) e Contact (1997). Per Forrest Gump ha vinto l'Oscar al miglior regista, mentre il film ha ricevuto numerosi altri riconoscimenti, tra cui quello per il miglior film. Nel corso della sua carriera ha diretto anche Cast Away (2000), Polar Express (2004), Flight (2012), The Walk (2015), Benvenuti a Marwen (2018) e Here (2024). Ha inoltre collaborato più volte con l'attore Tom Hanks, dirigendolo in Forrest Gump, Cast Away, The Polar Express e altri progetti. Grazie alla sua capacità di combinare effetti speciali, innovazione tecnica, commedia, avventura e dramma, Robert Zemeckis è considerato uno dei registi più importanti e influenti del cinema americano dagli anni Ottanta in poi.
