I'm trying to find the piece used during that initial montage but I can't for the life of me find it anywhere. If anyone can, you're the real G
A tale of two screenplays.
Since January of this year, I've been querying managers, agents, producers, Moms, etc... to try to sell a boxing script I have and have certainly gained some movement. I've had four script requests (one pass. Three still active) and two more notable studios interested though they can't formally accept it without a rep submitting (but I can still leverage that and say there's interest with them teehee).
HOWEVER I've also been writing another script which is quite different. It's a smaller scale, more commercial thriller which I also think could make some waves. Not TIDAL waves per say, but like those smaller one's you'd play around with at the beach.
The issue with the boxing film (though I'm still very much passionate about it) is it's not only a boxing film, but a period one at that. Which I acknowledge is a much harder sell.
But, and not to sound like a trend chaser or anything, with all this kerfuffle surrounding Obsession and Backrooms, I feel it might be tactically more adventageous to try and sell the thriller first since that's where the suits are paying attention atm and parlay that into my other script afterwards.
So now it's a back-and-forth if I should stay with the project that has already built momentum with OR should I pivot to the one which already has some movement. Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
