Winners Announced!

CONTEST TOPIC

Write For Your Favorite Actor

Did you know that Quentin Tarantino wrote the character of Vincent Vega in Pulp Fiction with John Travolta in mind? Sophia Coppola wrote Lost in Translation specifically for Bill Murray? When the screenwriter matches their vision for a character with its perfect embodiment, that can translate to magic on the screen. We invite you to write a short film screenplay with a role that you’d like to see your favorite actor play. They can be dead or alive, at their current age or in their younger years. You’re only limited by your imagination (and contest guidelines). Bonus points go to the more interesting and expected choices!
