“Blue Moon” is getting serious awards attention, and it’s a reminder that character-driven scripts still cut through. Not spectacle. Not IP. Just writing and performance. variety.com/2026/film/awar… #screenwriting
Nightcrawler is a masterclass in building a character arc that descends instead of redeems, forming a protagonist who gets worse, but prospers. The script never apologizes, and it doesn’t rely on a virtuous supporting cast to soften the blow, either. #screenwriting
AI keeps creeping closer to the creative process. Currently, studios frame it as a “tool”, while writers keep asking who owns the work and who gets replaced when “tool” becomes “default.” investors.com/news/artificia… #screenwriting #filmmaking
The Bear is a must watch because it shows how sustained pressure can replace traditional plot without losing momentum. No exposition dumps. No breathing room. Just characters making decisions because they have to. #screenwriting
No Country for Old Men (2007) Recommended because it’s pure cause and effect. Choices are made, consequences follow, and the story refuses to intervene. A sharp lesson in tension through restraint and inevitability. #screenwriting #screenwriter
WGA Awards nominations are out. Strong showing for Sinners, Weapons, Black Bag, One Battle After Another, and Frankenstein. hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-n… #screenwriting #screenwriter #filmmaking
Conflict in stories isn’t about yelling, arguments, or violence. It’s about incompatible objectives that force real loss and change. True conflict reshapes a scene, alters direction, and leaves lasting consequence. scriptserious.com/conflict-is-no… #screenwriting #screenwriter
Little Chick Emerging Writers Scheme TV drama programme for writers with at least one credit. Includes a 5-day retreat + 6 months of development with Abi Morgan & Sue Gibbs. littlechickltd.com/emerging-write… #screenwriting #screenwriter
This is definitely worth reading if you are curious about the direction Hollywood is headed in this year. Lots of candid takes on salaries, AI’s impact, and what actually needs to stay behind. theankler.com/p/hollywood-20… #screenwriting #screenwriter #filmmaking
Study Tár if you struggle with dialogue. Nothing in it is “about” what people say. It’s about power. Yet, Lydia rarely raises her voice. She frames conversations so other people reveal themselves while she stays protected. #screenwriting #screenwriter
The Women’s List 2025 is out, highlighting 38 unproduced feature and TV scripts written by women across all genres. A solid snapshot of what new voices are working on right now. hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-n… #screenwriting #screenwriter #filmmaking
The 2026 slate is VERY exciting! We’re going to see adaptations that don’t adhere to stuffy old interpretations, sequels that dig deep into their own origins, & genre films that appear more interested in character development than spectacle: hubs.ly/Q03-vqHP0
The 2026 Oscar nominations are out. The full list was announced today, with Sinners leading the field with a record-tying number of nominations. hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-n… #screenwriting #screenwriter #filmmaking
Streamers are quietly pushing for tighter episodes and leaner runtimes. Writers rooms are also being asked to break seasons like long features instead of padded serials. Therefore, your pilot and series engine have to work harder and faster. #screenwriting #screenwriter
This piece argues modern scripts lean toward fake-smart speech or blunt plot delivery. The result is characters who explain instead of express, killing subtext, rhythm, and the sense that real humans are talking. commonwealthtimes.org/2026/01/21/why… #screenwriting #screenwriter #filmmaking
Ryan Coogler’s vampire film Sinners just made Oscars history with 16 nominations, the most ever for a single movie. It’s a win for bold, original storytelling in an era dominated by sequels and franchises theguardian.com/film/2026/jan/… #screenwriting #screenwriter #filmmaking
The WGA says a Warner Bros–Paramount merger would be a “disaster” for writers and competition, and plans to fight it with regulators. Studio consolidation means fewer buyers and less leverage for script talent. c21media.net/news/wga-warns… #screenwriting #screenwriter
French film bodies and the CNC just agreed on a landmark deal setting minimum fees and better pay for screenwriters before production starts. A rare structural win creators can point to globally. screendaily.com/news/french-fi… #screenwriting #screenwriter
All the President’s Men (1976) proves tension comes from cause and effect, not spectacle. Questions, choices, consequences. That’s how scenes earn momentum and impact. #screenwriting #screenwriter
