Gary Whitta is an award-winning screenwriter and author best known for his work in film, television, and video games. He gained recognition for writing the post-apocalyptic thriller "The Book of Eli," starring Denzel Washington, and co-writing the sci-fi film "After Earth." His contributions to Telltale Games’ "The Walking Dead" earned him a BAFTA award, and he further expanded his portfolio with projects like "Star Wars Rebels" and the highly anticipated "Rogue One: A Star Wars Story."
Beyond screenwriting, Whitta has a diverse creative background, including his tenure as Editor-in-Chief of PC Gamer magazine.
