Lindelof was born on the 24th of April, 1973, in Englewood, New Jersey. He grew up in Teaneck, New Jersey, where he attended Teaneck High School and celebrated his Bar Mitzvah.
Lindelof co-wrote the screenplays for Cowboys and Aliens (2011), Prometheus (2012), Star Trek Into Darkness (2013), World War Z (2013), and Tomorrowland (2015). He also served as co-producer on J. J. Abrams's Star Trek (2009).
Lindelof adapted Alan Moore's Watchmen as an HBO limited series that premiered in 2019. Rather than retell the original story, he wrote an entirely new narrative set after the graphic novel's events. The series earned a 95% rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on 112 reviews.
In May 2023, allegations of a toxic workplace at Lost emerged in Maureen Ryan's book Burn It Down. Multiple sources claimed Lindelof made a racially charged remark about actor Harold Perrineau's departure. Lindelof said he had no recollection of the specific statements but acknowledged that his inexperience as a manager caused real harm to people on the show.
