In 2009, Peckham wrote the screenplays to two high-profile releases: the Clint Eastwood-directed Nelson Mandela biopic Invictus,[1] starring Morgan Freeman and Matt Damon, and Sherlock Holmes, starring Robert Downey, Jr.. He also rewrote the script for The Book of Eli.[2] In 2013, he was initially signed to write the screenplay for Jason Bourne, set for release in 2016 by Universal Pictures.[3] However, he ended up not writing for the film.
