Seidler's biological parents were killed during the Holocaust. He spent his childhood in London and later moved to New York, USA. Because he had a severe stutter and was very introverted in his teenage years, these personal experiences became his creative wealth. For example, in "The King's Speech", the section about George VI's stuttering correction included Sadler, which was integrated into Sadler's personal experience. .
Sadler's main screenwriting works also include "The Pioneer" (1988), "Stage Love" (1999), "The King and I" (1999), "The Legend of White Crane Kung Fu" (2008), etc.
