Josh Friedman (born 1967) is an American screenwriter best known as the show runner of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles and as the writer of the 2005 film adaptation of H.G. Wells' War of the Worlds. Ironically, he had no role in the writing of the War of the Worlds script: he wrote a script several years earlier for the studio, and as a result is credited as a screenwriter despite not having been involved in the 2005 film.

Friedman also publishes the blog "I Find Your Lack of Faith Disturbing". After being offered an opportunity to work on a script titled Snakes on a Plane, Friedman posted a blog entry[1] that sparked interest in the film on the Internet before the movie entered production. The same entry introduced a profane line that was added to the film when the cast reconvened in March 2006 to shoot additional footage.
