View Full Version : Does Marvel still have some place to accept scripts?

For TV or movies specifically. I've been tossing around ideas for a live action Fantastic Four series, and have put down a lot of stuff on paper, but have no idea where to go from here other than getting an agent. Anyone know anything else I can do? I'm actually just as interested in pitching my ideas, because I'm fairly green at writing and not as competent in TV, just because I think it's a good idea.

Whoooa man, a Fantastic Four television show that looks good would cost a pretty penny each episode, although I guess with Terra Nova's 3D dinos anything is possible nowadays. I would start with getting an agent or legal counsel that could act as a mediator between you and Marvel in the interim; or at least send your stuff into Marvel studios first and then see if agency will be required. Generally the company will say either: "We're not currently looking at scripts" or "We can only look at scripts with an agent attached to them." It's a trial and error process. Best of luck, though.

Brevoort has said they don't just accept scripts and ideas for legal reasons.

From my understanding, the only way to get your stuff read or seen by Marvel is to work independently and get recruited. I don't think they have excepted submissions of any kind for a long time.

Not since Charcoal, right?

Anything related to the Fantastic Four would go through Fox Studios. They own the rights to the FF. I'm sure they have some sort of submission criteria as well.
