Hollywood has a lot of go-to screenwriters when it comes to its biggest blockbusters. Some writers, it seems, just have a knack for conceiving of the exact kind of rousing, crowd-pleasing entertainment that mass audiences love (and that studios love to invest in). Most major blockbusters tend to hire teams of screenwriters, even though only a few are credited. And while most of the biggest blockbuster writers share their work with many others, they always seem to be present when money is being made.

Attentive filmgoers might immediately recognize names like Ehren Kruger, the screenwriter behind super-hits like "The Ring," three "Transformers" sequels, "Top Gun: Maverick," and "F1." Per The Numbers , his films have, collectively, earned over $6.2 billion at the global box office.
