How do I contact Marvel comics to write a screenplay for one of their characters?

Question

I have the perfect idea for a movie about Gambit from "X-Men." He wasn't in any movies, and I know a lot of fans would love a Gambit movie.

Answer 1

First, understand MArvel has a development deal with a production company over a period of years.

Marvel Productions probably still is in Los Angeles, you can write them and ask if you can submit.

I'd write COVERAGE and a SYNOPSIS on top of your script.

Don't send it to them they won't read it.

First QUERY and then if they send a release submit, but that release may say you will accept payment as little as $500 for the concept, in advance.

Understand the most you can expect is about $25K and last entry on "story by" and that is enough to start a career in hollywood!

YOu better justifiy your view. You better make them see $$$$ with your idea.

You better make it CLEAR how they will get $$$$ with this idea.

That is more important than the story.

What they want to know is how you intend to make this chracter $$$$ because THEY have already brainstormed it in house and with their developing production company using some of the top writers in Hollywood, including guys who did MI1 and MI2

Hollywood explores EVERY idea and throws $1 million into it but never produces it.

This happens daily.

You BETTER have an angle they never viewed before!

You better make them think someone will get a Woodie over this!

Remember, they looked at every angle.

When they did the X men movies they may have even shot this character and threw it out, because it didn't make the movie have anymore $$$$

What is the $$$$

If it ain't got $$$$

Don't even approach them

You have to make then think $$$$$

Because they are goiong to plow $200 million into this and expect to get $500 million back.

You better have a good game plan to make them see $500 Mil $$$$$$


Pitching a script is just like pitching a plan to BANK ROBBERS about how to get $500 million!

It better be a fool proof plan!

If you can't do that, don't even contact them!

Remember, literally, the idea here to to convince Angelina Jolie she needs to spread her legs for you.

Why?

That's up to you to come up with the CON job.

And to get her to take her clothes off and spread her legs for you, it better be a good CON job!
