Act Two Writers - The Quote of the Day

Screenwriter Steve Desmond and his co-writer Michael Sherman have made a career of securing IP and adapting it via pitches and spec sales. Their scripts have landed them on the Black List multiple times, and their latest feature, KNOCK AT THE CABIN, releases in theaters February 3, 2023 with M. Night Shyamalan directing. And it all started with a little-known IP.

Hosts Tasha Huo and Josh Hallman discuss how Steve finds his IP, secures it, and successfully adapts it at such a high level. If you've ever been interested in adapting your favorite IP but aren't sure where to start, this is the starting line.
