About Dhruv Sharma

Dhruv is a Lead Writer in Screen Rant's New TV division. He has been consistently contributing to the website for over two years and has written thousands of articles covering streaming trends, movie/TV analysis, and pop culture breakdowns.
Before Screen Rant, he was a Senior Writer for The Cinemaholic, covering everything from anime to television, from reality TV to movies.
After high school, he was on his way to become a Civil Engineer. However, he soon realized that writing was his true calling. As a result, he took a leap and never looked back.

Industry Focus

As a Lead Writer, Dhruv tries to keep up with almost all major streaming releases. However, as a die-hard fan of sci-fi and horror, he particularly keeps a close eye on  shows within  these genres.
For Screen Rant, he has extensively covered many popular shows and franchises, like Reacher, Silo, Severance, Squid Game, The Bear, True Detective, The Boys, and Ozark. With over 5K articles under his belt, he has driven millions of views across the site through engaging features.
When Dhruv is not catching up with the latest movies and shows on streaming, he loves exploring indie horror cinema. Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead are his favorite director-duo, and their work in films, like The Endless, Spring, and Something in The Dirt, inspires him to write. He also keeps revisiting Mike Flanagan's creations and believes that Midnight Mass is the best horror show ever.
