Since 2004, film development executive Franklin Leonard has set up an annual list -- called
The Black List -- of the best screenplays that have been sitting around, collecting dust, waiting for a producer to get the wheels in motion. Former Black Listers include the Oscar-winning
Juno by Diablo Cody and nominee
Lars and the Real Girl by Nancy Oliver. So, who will get lucky this year? Among the scripts
listed this year are
Ground Control to Major Tom by Jason Micallef,
Fuck Marry Kill by Neel Shah and Alex Blagg (to which I say "FINALLY"), and
Seuss by Eyal Podell and Jonathan Stewart, among many other interesting titles. (via
