Spec Script Sale: “Dunkirk”

[Tom & Jerry]

Working Title Films the World War II spec script “Dunkirk” written by Gavin Scott. From Deadline:

The script chronicles the courage of British civilians, men and women who used small boats to cross the English Channel and rescue 200,000 British troops and 140,000 French troops from the advancing Germans. Dunkirk was one of the battles that changed the course of WWII.

Two spec script deals set in World War II announced in one day. What are the odds?

Scott is repped by Original Artists and Linda Seifert Management.

By my count, this is the 10th spec script sale in 2013.

Last year at this time, there were 14 spec script deals.
