The Black List

The Black List, an annual survey of Hollywood executives' favorite unproduced screenplays, was founded in 2005. Since then, more than 300 Black List scripts have been produced, grossing almost $25 billion in box office worldwide. Black List movies have won 43 Academy Awards, including three of the last seven Best Picture Oscars and eight of the last sixteen Best Screenplay Oscars. In October of 2012, the Black List launched a unique online community where screenwriters make their work available to readers, buyers and employers. Since its inception, it has hosted more than 25,000 screenplays and teleplays and provided more than 40,000 script evaluations.
