‘Borderlands’ Movie: Craig Mazin Says He’s ‘Not a Credited Writer’ and Reports of Pseudonym Credit Are ‘False’1

Though it was at one point reported that the most recent draft of Lionsgates Borderlands movie had been co-written by Craig Mazin, that involvement doesnt seem to be true.

Questions about the Chernobyl and The Last of Us writers attachment began to rise on Sunday, when World of Reel reported that Borderlands was in post-production hell and that Mazin had removed his name from the project, opting instead to use the pseudonym Joe Crombie. While the Writers Guild of Americas website does list Joe Crombie as a co-writer alongside director Eli Roth, Mazin is now publicly denying that the pen name is his.

I am not a credited writer on the film, so I cannot claim any kind of authorship of Borderlands, much less co-writing,' he said in a statement to Variety. I did see the report about the pseudonym, which is false. I did not use a pseudonym. If the name in question is indeed a pseudonym, all I can say is its not mine.

Based on the popular video game series of the same name, Borderlands will follow Lilith (Cate Blanchett), an infamous outlaw with a mysterious past. She reluctantly returns to her home planet of Pandora and forms an unexpected alliance to find the missing daughter of Atlas (dgar Ramrez), a business titan and arms manufacturer who is considered the most powerful person in the universe.

In addition to Blanchett and Ramirez, Borderlands will star Kevin Hart, Jamie Lee Curtis, Jack Black, Arianna Greenblatt, Florian Munteanu, Haley Bennett and Bobby Lee.
