Who We Are
The Stunt List Initiatives and Showcases are created by writers, for writers. Our aim is to amplify a diverse portfolio of voices through various writer-forward initiatives and radical kindness. Our website vibe is created by Ash Lazer and Justin H. Olson and aims to feel like a “Netflix For Writers”—projecting a completed brand image at the script stage. The Stunt List Website is created by Ash Lazer and Eric Moyer, Executive Produced by Elizabeth Ditty, and runs on the sweat equity of a team of brilliant creators. In addition to The Stunt List showcase, we’ve recently expanded into market-ready screenplay initiatives, called The Dead List and The Originals Bureau.
ABOUT OUR SHOWCASES:
The Stunt List: "The Fusion of IP and Original Voice." The Stunt List features scripts based on existing IP the writer does not own. "Stunt" scripts are sometimes also called "fuck-it" scripts, but usually mash up IP for a big splash in the market place, but also can be traditional specs of existing TV shows written for fellowships applications and Showrunner meetings.

The Dead List: A curation of the raddest, most sinister celluloid in the city — All original, market-ready horror scripts. Season 1 exploded into the Hollywood marketplace and put us on the map for discovering originals, even landing an unrepped writer with a general meeting at Heroes & Villains, among other high profile success stories.

The Originals Bureau: A marquee of dynamic & diverse, market-ready original scripts. Season 2 blew up with dozens of high profile industry requests from folks like a Co-Ep of a network show on CBS, and a handful of A-list producers and directors. Link To View
