Bryan Singer is an American film director and producer best known for his work on crime thrillers and superhero films. He first gained widespread acclaim with The Usual Suspects, which won two Academy Awards, before helping to redefine the modern comic book genre with X-Men and X2. Singer also directed Superman Returns, Jack the Giant Slayer, X-Men: Days of Future Past and Bohemian Rhapsody, although he was dismissed from the latter during production. Despite his commercial success and influence on blockbuster filmmaking, Singer’s career has been overshadowed by multiple allegations of sexual misconduct, all of which he has denied.
