Biography
Mike Werb is an American screenwriter whose credits shaped 1990s Hollywood action. His screenplay for Face/Off, co-written with Michael Colleary, earned the duo a Saturn Award for Best Writing in 1998. He also wrote The Mask and contributed the story for Lara Croft: Tomb Raider. Born in Los Angeles in 1977, Werb attended Stanford before graduating from UCLA Film School, establishing himself in the industry's formal pipeline. Beyond theatrical releases, he created the television series Unnatural History. Werb's career reflects the methodical, precision-driven temperament of his Life Path 33 numerology—a master number associated with vision and inspiration. As a screenwriter, his craft involves structuring narrative, dialogue, and character arcs across multiple formats. Several early projects with Colleary—including Top Ten, Stretch Armstrong, and King's Ransom (for director John Woo)—remained unproduced, reflecting the attrition inherent in development cycles. His Cancer sign, traditionally associated with emotional depth and persistence, may echo in his ability to sustain collaborative partnerships across decades.
