Akiva Goldsman (born July 7, 1962) is an American film producer and screenwriter, who bounced back from writing Batman Forever and Batman and Robin by penning the Academy Award-winning A Beautiful Mind. He served as a consulting producer, writer and director on Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman's TV series Fringe.

In 2015, Goldsman was hired by Paramount Pictures to oversee the development of spin-offs for the Transformers live-action film series. He was to write Transformers: The Last Knight itself, but instead was hired to oversee a writer's room for G.I. Joe, Micronauts, and other Hasbro franchises, instead moving to a supervisory role for the Transformers: The Last Knight script.
