The real reasons film and streaming studios are interested in multi-platform packages

Why has Spielberg, Steven King, and credited writers been adapting their scripts to books for decades?

Why studios and streaming want your script and book version of your script:

1. Creative Executive: Your Script and Your Book (Book version of your script.)

• Your script has a quicker path to production: The script is formatted and written as the foundation and blueprint to produce a media visual that can be developed, funded, and created for immediate theatrical and/or broadcast release. ?

2. Business Executive: Why there's interest in the book version of your script:

• Because of how books are written. Having both (script & book) makes it easier for all new content to be based on the concept, storyline, and individual characters that are already outlined, developed and defined, in the book version of the script.
• This is why sequels and spin-offs to your original script is easier to write and produce in a shorter amount of time.

It is primarily for these reasons that studios have a heighten interest in multi-platform packages. If the genre, concept, and creative storyline of your script meets their needs.

It's important to remember:

• Many scripts have a chance of being submitted and reviewed.
• But all Authors decide when their manuscript gets published!
