Philippa Boyens is a New Zealand screenwriter who co-wrote the screenplay for Peter Jackson's film series The Lord of the Rings with Peter Jackson and Fran Walsh, for which the trio won an Oscar at the 76th Academy Awards in 2004. Boyens worked with the same collaborators on the screenplay for Jackson's version of King Kong (2005). Following that movie's completion, the trio will once again work together on an adaptation of Alice Sebold's novel The Lovely Bones, which is expected to be released in 2007. Prior to turning to screenwriting with The Lord of the Rings, Boyens was a playwright.

She also has two children, Phoebe Gittins, a daughter, and Calum Gittins, a son who starred as Haleth in The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers
