Shortly after beginning his career as a barrister, Osborne moved to Hollywood with a friend, William Davies, and began to write film scripts. Their only preparation for this new career was to buy a book called Screenplay and read it five times.[1] Osborne became a member of the Writers Guild of America West and has written for more than sixty films, including GoldenEye (1995).[3]
He has been a director of Loveb Films since 2012.[4]
In 2001, Osborne married the film producer Debra Hayward,[5] and they have four children.[6] He returned from California to marry Hayward, and they later moved from London to Glandford, Norfolk, with Osborne taking up writing children’s fiction.[3] His recreations include cold water swimming, Lego, and driving a beach buggy.
