JUSTIN OLSON

Screenwriter x Graphic Designer

Available for representation.

Recommended by: The Black List: Featured Script with six 8/10s; #3 Top Script of all time.

Justin’s Writer Lens: Precious little is known about this enigmatic writer. Some say Justin was created in a lab at a secret U.S. research facility in Antarctica. Others insist he’s merely a fine-tuned GPT language model trained on late-20th century pop culture. Perhaps the most outlandish theory is that he’s a time traveler from a future where all writing is done by A.I., sent back to the present day in a desperate attempt to forge a screenwriting career. Certainly, an awful waste of such amazing technology.

Dope Vague News: Totally, probably, might potentially get something optioned. Maybe. Although unlikely.
