Zak Penn

".

Early life

Penn graduated from Wesleyan University in 1990. His screenplay for "PCU" was based on his experiences at the Eclectic Society house.

Career

The screenplay for "Last Action Hero", for which he received a "Story By" credit with Adam Leff, was nominated for a 1993 Golden Raspberry Award for Worst Screenplay; however, it lost to the "Indecent Proposal" script. "Last Action Hero" had been an original screenplay by Zak and Adam, but the rewritten version used in the film bore little resemblance to the original screenplay. Other films that he has been involved in writing include "Inspector Gadget", " X2", "", and " Elektra". Penn wrote early drafts of both "Hulk" and "The Incredible Hulk" and is also set to write "The Avengers".

Other information

Zak Penn is also a Jury Member of the on-going Filmaka short film contest.
