The Legend of Hercules (Writers)
Hi.
I noticed that in ”The Legend of Hercules” (2014), only these two writers are actually credited:
Sean Hood (written by) and
Daniel Giat (written by)
It’s true that (e.g.) the 2013 press release (note: ..but not the actual credits) list ”Sean Hood, Renny Harlin and Giulio Steve” as writers. This is probably one of the reasons why Harlin and Steve are also listed to IMDb. And maybe there are WGA rules and whatnot.
In the audio commentary Harlin mentions that Sean Hood was the original (main) writer, but after that others did some rewriting (he doesn’t mention any additional names, but probably also Harlin and Steve).
A long story short: I believe Harlin and Steve deserve a IMDb credit, BUT with ”uncredited” attribute (again: they’re not credited). I tried to add the attribute (with a screenshot of the credits), but it was declined:
#220921-062326-662000
Perhaps IMDb staff could take a look, thanks.
( The first is the screenshot of the actual credits. The second is from the trailer. )

Hi eboy-
Thank you for posting the submission reference number and for the rest of the information for these writers! We have reviewed it and the reason why it was declined was because the 'uncredited' attribute for writers will not be accepted for titles with WGA-determined credits.
For more detailed information, you can take a look at our following Help Guide.
Cheers!
