48 writers over 40 have scripts for films and TV shows ready to go, and have been showcased by The Grey List 2024.
Launched in 2022 as a response to the entertainment industry and its habit of being on the ageist side of things, The Grey List is now in its third year. It’s the idea of Brad M Johnson, and a response to the fact that once creatives get past 40, it can be harder to break in, and harder to get the attention of Hollywood decision makers.
As such, the list is a collection of production-ready feature and pilot scripts, that are completed and ready for market. The unifying feature between them all is that they’re written by writers who are all over 40.
2024’s The Grey List has thus been published, and it features 48 writers across its collection of projects. To give a flavour of some of the ideas on the list,...

'In Stereo' movie with Micah Hauptman and Beau Garrett. 'In Stereo' movie review: Witty, sarcastic romantic comedy In Stereo is a particular kind of romantic comedy – the kind full of characters that aren't remotely romantic, that tend more toward wit and sarcasm rather than light or camp comedy (unless it involves someone getting beaten up), and in which things may very well turn out badly for the protagonists, whom we may or may not be inclined to root for or even like. This is my kind of romantic comedy; a little mean and very funny if you prefer wit and sarcasm to fart jokes – as witty and sarcastic people always do.

In Stereo, the film,...

Fans of the Chicago Bears legend William "the Refrigerator" Perry can breathe a sigh of relief. The former defensive lineman is alive -- despite an erroneous Twitter report to the contrary that surfaced Wednesday (Aug. 14) morning.
"I know he is not dead," Perry's agent, Adam Plotkin, tells the Chicago Tribune. "I talked to Michael Dean (Perry) a few minutes ago. And i know the Bears were down there interviewing Fridge on Saturday for coach (Mike) Ditka's (jersey) retirement. But I did talk to Michael Dean, and he had gotten some calls, too, and Michael Dean said it was Ok to confirm that Fridge is fine."
Plotkin says Michael Dean (Perry's brother) received a call saying that someone named William Perry had died, but it was just a case of a shared name. "He is completely fine," Plotkin assures.
Perry confirmed his living status himself on Wednesday, tweeting at @FridgePerry72:...
