Reacquisition of Theatrical Screenplays Dashboard Dashboard

The MBA includes a reacquisition process for screenwriters of unproduced, original scripts. As the creators of valuable intellectual property, screenwriters can often find a new buyer for a script that the original studio has failed to produce. In this virtual panel presented by the Member Organizing Department, WGAW members Allison Schroeder (Hidden Figures, Christopher Robin) and Eric Warren Singer (Top Gun: Maverick, American Hustle) talk with WGAW staff member Brad Schleder (Senior Counsel, WGAW Contracts) about understanding your contractual rights to a reacquisition process.
