Today, we have reached another exciting stage of the competition. We’re excited to say we have whittled down your submissions and are ready to announce the WriteMovies Spring 2025 Screenwriting Contest Semi-Finalists!

It’s a thrilling time as we get one step closer to discovering this season’s winners.
At WriteMovies, our contests look to spotlight scripts that present a unique and original premise, whilst also having strong commercial potential to become the next big hit. We believe that all of our semi-finalists have a quality that helps them stand out and appeal to audiences.
Reaching this penultimate round of the contest has involved making a lot of difficult decisions, but it’s only going to get tougher from here!
Next week on July 1st, we will announce the top three scripts, who will win a year of script development, representation from TalentScout International Management and guaranteed pitching to the international industry!
But for now, we proudly present the WriteMovies Spring 2025 Screenwriting Contest Semi-Finalists!
