One of the best new follows on this site.
It's now been a couple weeks since starting the outline for my next movie after @remainmovie and I am 50% done with the first draft of the outline.
This is a coup for my old school 👏 @NFTSFilmTV deadline.com/2026/11/barbara…

Listening back to @BrandonFlowers Flamingo 🦩 and forgot just how much I like this album… he can write a TUNE! 🎶

Since its première, in 2022, “Slow Horses”—Apple TV’s fast-paced espionage drama about a division of MI5 where the screwups and sluggards end up—has become “a treasure to those in the know, and a nonentity to outsiders,” Inkoo Kang writes. The show, starring Gary Oldman and Jack Lowden, boasts nearly two dozen Emmy nominations, and a few wins, but has never reached the breakout status of “Ted Lasso” or “Severance.” Read why Kang thinks the underrated program is the best on Apple TV:newyorkermag.visitlink.me/Eo…

Mike and Pam have been DIPPED.
Ellison is not preserving Warner Bros. as a legacy management fiefdom. He may preserve Warner as a brand/maison, but he does not appear interested in preserving the people currently running it.
Second, Digger now looks even more like the final

News: Studio chiefs Mike De Luca and Pam Abdy are out at Warner Bros. No, it wasn't just DIGGER. Details in tonight's @PuckNews What I'm Hearing... ⬇️⬇️ puck.news/the-mike-and-pam-e…
I’m also now worrying about the social reckoning since there seems to have been a total review blackout, zero festival premieres, and it comes out the following Friday - feel like the town is about to take a one-two punch for adult dramas and I am sad about that…

Absolutely. I always tell me clients, there are only two things you can control: the quantity and quality of your writing.
Excited to finally share this one! I had a great time talking to Kelly Marcel about everything from Saving Mr. Banks, to Fifty Shades of Grey, to @SonyPictures #Venom franchise - check it out 👇 🍿 📽️ #film @E_L_James #screenwriting #writeyourspec podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

Some collaborations change the trajectory of your entire career. Developing Leo Sardarian’s BlackList script, NICHOLAS, was one of them.
We recount our (still unfinished) adventures to turn the origin of Santa Claus into a movie on @chrishillwrites’ BLACKLISTED podcast!
How can #Tuchel leave #Palmer out of the 🏴 squad? He scored once in the Euro final and twice in the @FIFAcom Club World Cup final… IN AMERICA?! 🇺🇸 madness #WORLDCUPCHAOS #worldcup @England @ChelseaFC

In this podcast, screenwriter Ian Shorr confirms naming of Paramount Primal. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…
HOT RUMOR: I hear that Paramount's new genre label that J.D. Lifshitz and Raphael Margules are building out is going to be called... PARAMOUNT PRIMAL. I had ChatGPT make a quick mockup of the main Paramount logo, taking inspiration from THE HILLS HAVE EYES. This is not real...

Hot Take — you get better reads on paper scripts.
1. Scrolling on an iPad is a passive action which leads to passive reading.
2. Feeling where you are in a script based on the pages immerses your reader in the movie.
3. Reading on paper separates you from your phone/work.

Hard to see this as a happy ending even it's framed that way. Seems pretty grim to me but I do hope he's happier now. It all comes down to supply and demand. Too many writers, not enough jobs
