John Titley is a screenwriter and producer of film and television based in Toronto, Canada. He’s written over 80 episodes of television for networks like CBC, A&E, History Channel and Discovery, including the latest season of the critically-acclaimed DARK SIDE OF THE RING (VICE). He’s also created and sold original scripted projects in both comedy and drama, with his scripts being recognized by the National Screen Institute, the Austin Film Festival and the 2024 Stunt List for his crossover spec THE OFFICE PURGE.

John first developed his voice as a resident of the Writers’ Lab at Norman Jewison’s Canadian Film Centre, where he wrote two short films that played festivals worldwide, including TIFF, Fantasia, LA Screamfest, and Urbanworld New York. He later trained under comedy showrunner Anthony Farrell (SHELVED, THE OFFICE) and was mentored in drama by Adam Barken (KILLJOYS) at the National Screen Institute. John’s introduction to screenwriting came taking classes with director Guy Maddin (RUMOURS) at the University of Manitoba in his hometown of Winnipeg, where he also received an early lesson in suspense when he was held at gunpoint as a child during an armed robbery.
