  • Netflix Lust for `True Blood' Is Unrequited As HBO Blocks Path
    Netflix Lust for `True Blood' Is Unrequited as HBO Blocks Path By Ronald Grover - Netflix Chief Executive Officer Reed Hastings. Photographer: Ryan Anson/Bloomberg Netflix Inc.’s drive to offer its subscribers online movies from all the biggest Hollywood studios may hit a wall with HBO. Time Warner Inc.’s pay-television channel, home to shows including the “The Sopranos” and “True Blood,” holds cable and Internet rights to films from Warner Bros., Twentieth Century Fox and Universal Pictures and is unlikely to make a deal with Netflix, HBO Co-President Eric Kessler said. “There is value in exclusivity,” Kessler said in an interview. Consumers “are willing to pay a premium for high quality, exclusive content,” he said. Netflix Chief Executive Officer Reed Hastings opened his company’s coffers last week, agreeing to pay the Epix cable channel more than $900 million over five years for online rights to films from Paramount Pictures, Lions Gate Entertainment Corp. and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Inc. Hastings plans to spend more to build the service, which offers DVDs by mail and online viewing for $8.99 a month, and has said he wants HBO as a supplier. HBO’s stand prevents Los Gatos, California-based Netflix from gaining online access to titles from all of the major studios. Netflix members can see films from Walt Disney Co. and Sony Pictures Entertainment online through a deal between the subscription movie service and Liberty Media Corp.’s Starz channel, which has separate accords with both studios. Netflix also has an agreement with Ryan Kavanaugh’s Relativity Media, which took over Overture Films from Liberty.

  • Screenwriters/Executive Producers Rhett Reese & Paul Wernick
    The post-apocalyptic zombie road trip comedy Zombieland (2009) centers on four survivors of a viral pandemic: Tallahassee (Woody Harrelson), Columbus (Jesse Eisenberg), Wichita (Emma Stone), and Little Rock (Abigail Breslin). After most of the world’s population has turned into zombies, surviving humans are locked in an ongoing battle against the hungry undead. The seemingly-mismatched central characters journey towards an alleged safe haven in Los Angeles, following a strict set of survival rules and zombie-killing strategies as they travel. Script to Screen is delighted to welcome screenwriters/executive producers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick for a virtual Q&A. The conversation will be moderated by Pollock Theater Director Matt Ryan. Zombieland can be streamed on Amazon Prime Video, Google Play, and iTunes. Screenwriters/Executive Producers Rhett Reese & Paul Wernick Writer-Producers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick met in high school in Phoenix, Arizona and have been creative partners since 2001. The pair wrote and executive-produced Twentieth Century Fox’s Deadpool, starring Ryan Reynolds. The 2016 superhero action-comedy remains the highest grossing R-rated movie of all time and was nominated for Best Picture (Comedy or Musical) at the Golden Globe Awards and Best Adapted Screenplay by the Writer’s Guild. Reese and Wernick subsequently co-wrote and executive-produced Deadpool 2, which became the third highest grossing R-rated movie of all time. Reese’s and Wernick’s first feature collaboration was Zombieland, which they wrote and executive- produced for Columbia Pictures in 2009. Reese and Wernick also wrote the screenplay for its sequel Zombieland: Double Tap (2019).
