About Geneva Robertson-Dworet

Born 1985. Geneva Robertson-Dworet is an American screenwriter and executive producer.

Geneva Robertson-Dworet (born May 8, 1985) is an American screenwriter. She rose to prominence after being hired in 2015 to rewrite the script for the 2018 Tomb Raider reboot, starring Alicia Vikander and directed by Roar Uthaug. She co-wrote the screenplay for Marvel Studios' Captain Marvel and is the co-showrunner and co-creator of the television adaptation of the Fallout video game franchise for Amazon Prime Video.

Robertson-Dworet was originally set to write the screenplay for David Ayer's Gotham City Sirens film, as part of the DC Extended Universe. Additionally, she wrote a third Sherlock Holmes film, an adaptation of the role playing game Dungeons & Dragons, and a screenplay adapting the novel Artemis.
