By: Chris Hill
  • Summary

  • Blacklisted is a podcast where we delve into the minds of the talented writers who have been featured on the annual Black List - a prestigious list of the best unproduced scripts in Hollywood, as voted on by industry professionals. Each episode, we talk to a screenwriter about their first screenplay that placed on the coveted list; the journey it took to get there, and the subsequent impact the achievement had on their career.

    In our final bonus episode with lit managers of season one, we speak with producer Kate Sharp of Bellevue Productions. Kate is the lit manager of season one guests: Alexandra Tran and Jessica Welsh. Take a Deeper Dive: Interesting article about the curious case of copyright as it applies to Frank Capra's It's A Wonderful Life - here. The script we talk about that sold for $2M to MGM Amazon Studios was a spec by Nyad scribe, Julia Cox. Article link here. After Kate and I spoke, another spec hit the market (Alignment) about the travails of AI - this time from an unknown, unrepped screenwriter - and sold for $1.25M (against $3.25M) to Fifth Season. Link to that story here.
