Jeff Loveness is an American screenwriter, television producer, actor, and comic book writer who has worked on the television series Jimmy Kimmel Live! and Rick and Morty, as well as the Marvel Cinematic Universe film Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (2023).
Loveness graduated from Pepperdine University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in 2010. He started his career by writing several television episodes for Jimmy Kimmel Live! and Miracle Workers. In March 2015, Loveness wrote a comic series centered around the Marvel Comics character Groot, alongside artist Brian Kesinger. In May 2017, he wrote several comic issues centered around other Marvel characters, including Nova and Spider-Man.
He later gained notability for writing four season four Rick and Morty episodes. Soon after, he was hired by Marvel Studios to write the screenplay for Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. In December 2020, Loveness revealed that he had turned in the first draft of the script, and said Marvel had used the COVID-19 pandemic break to "do something new and weird" with the film.
He came back in 2021 to write the Rick and Morty season 5 opening episode "Mort Dinner Rick Andre" and the finale, "Rickmurai Jack", which is his final episode of the show. In September 2022, Loveness was hired to work again with Marvel Studios by writing the screenplay for Avengers: The Kang Dynasty, but was later replaced by Michael Waldron and Stephen McFeely who rewrote the film as Avengers: Doomsday (2026).
