No, the Gauntlet isn’t a script competition.

It’s a 3-tier system that gives screenwriters direct access to real industry gatekeepers.

Our readers don’t weed you out for a few winning spots. They discover new voices, so all the best projects rise to the top.

It’s you vs. you.

AI can’t replace humanity in storytelling: US filmmaker Linklater Can great art be made without human genius and all its flaws? It's a vital question at a time when artificial intelligence threatens to subsume...

“AI is not going to make a film."

- Richard Linklater, director of “Boyhood” and the “Before” trilogy.

We couldn’t agree more.

Does Your Script Suck? Let Shane Black Decide The veteran scribe is launching a new competition — Gauntlet — designed to help promising spec scripts find their way to the screen.

Well, this is a little awkward.

Despite a few inaccuracies, all press is good press.

We’re grateful for the attention.

The right to speak our minds and to disagree with each other - to disturb, even - is at the very heart of what it means to be a free people. It is not to be denied. Not by violence, not by the abuse of governmental power, nor by acts of corporate cowardice. As a Guild, we stand united in opposition to anyone who uses their power and influence to silence the voices of writers, or anyone who speaks in dissent. If free speech applied only to ideas we like, we needn't have bothered to write it into the Constitution. What we have signed on to - painful as it may be at times - is the freeing agreement to disagree. Shame on those in government who forget this founding truth. As for our employers, our words have made you rich. Silencing us impoverishes the whole world. The WA stands with Jimmy Kimmel and his writers.

Are We Experiencing The Spec Boom We've Been Waiting For? The numbers have not been this good since 2017...and maye the 90s.

Stop scrolling. Start writing.

Even staring at a blank screen counts. That’s where every screenplay begins.

We’re all craving original stories on the big screen.
Hollywood’s (finally) catching on.
