As part of The New Year, Compass' new wave of Feature Screenplays will debut in January and February, kicking off 2014 in style! Our Winter '14 slate will consist of 5 previously unseen screenplays, four of which we'll be announcing today! Compass is proud to announce that we'll be showcasing the works of up and coming Canadian screenwriter Alex McKinnon (Alex McKinnon), an MFA student in screenwriting with a bright new voice. MacKinnon will show four new screenplays at Compass over two months, including...
WINTER '14 FEATURE SCREENPLAYS
Jan 1st, 2014: Alex McKinnon's Wonder Woman, a stirring new take on a classic heroine kicking off Compass derivative works section - and an entire Compass-based DC universe!
Jan 14th, 2014: Halfway through January, Compass will premiere McKinnon's Happiness & The Fish, the story of a man who has kept his head down and never asked for anything he's ever wanted, building great success out of his sacrifices... and the one chance he's got with the girl of his dreams, which could crack his perfect life right down the middle.
Feb 1st, 2014: Kicking off February, Alex McKinnon's follow-up to Wonder Woman and Compass' second venture into the DC-verse will premiere: Trinity, a film that will force the various heroes of the DC universe to converge in a spectacular story.
Feb 28th, 2014: The last of our announced titles, and possibly the best: McKinnon's Bad Apple, a story of murder, deception, monstrosity, and the human need for companionship and love.
March 15th, 2014: The finale of our Winter '14 season as the year breaks into spring, a title we're keeping under wraps for the moment. More details forthcoming.
So, that's our big news! Five new screenplays set to hit Compass' shores in early 2014, and an enterprising young screenwriter we can't wait for you to meet. And this is just our Feature Screenplays section. Are you ready for the new year?
