Development and Production
Acclaimed filmmaker Scott Z. Burns began formulating the idea to write, direct, and produce the gripping real-life thriller The Report after reading a Vanity Fair article by journalist Katherine Eban. Published in 2007, it told the story of how two psychologists — James Mitchell and Bruce Jessen — became the architects of the CIA’s “enhanced interrogation” program in the aftermath of 9/11.
As he dug deeper into the subject, Burns’ focus began to turn toward the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence’s report on the Detention and Interrogation Program, also known as “the torture report.”
