Make A-List Actors Fall In Love
Every agent, manager and producer is looking for great roles – because they know audiences and A-List Actors alike fall in love with them.
Understanding actors’ needs and incredible character design empowers you to:
- Create Profound Depth
- Turn Character Profiles into Powerful Dialogue
- Pick Perfect Characters for Your Story
- Make Actors NEED to be in Your Movie
- Introduce Characters like Stars
Accomplishing all of that will make great actors LOVE your writing. And getting them on board can take projects from “we’ll get back to you” to “GREENLIT.”
Writing “Actor Bait”
We extensively studied character design and expression in many top scripts and created a great model for creating characters.
But then we went further.
Meeting with 32 production companies owned by A-List Actors, we got answers about EXACTLY what makes movie stars say “YES!” to a project.
By the end of this class, you’ll also have the answers to:
- What causes an actor to fall in love with a character?
- How does an actor read a script differently than a producer?
- What needs to be in the character introduction to entice an actor?
- How does a role improve the reputation and financial future of an actor?
- And what does all of this have to do with you and your screenplay?
Armed with that and our Movie Stars model, you’ll know how to attract actors, create incredible character profiles and write tantalizing introductions… in every screenplay you write.

I give it a five star review. It brought to light the need to draw actors to your script, by knowing what they seek beyond traits, subtext and specifics, but to the roles and types of roles,that showcase their reputations, talents and credentials to the nth degree, defining them for their role indefinitely. The content was amazing. A course well worth considering. Thanks.

This class changed the way I’ll write characters from now on, whether it be in screenplays or novels. It makes you dive deep into your characters, discover who they want to be, and then letting them tell their story. It’s not easy, but it is great fun. Discovery always is. I highly recommend this class for writers in any genre.
