Go Into The Story Interview: Elad Ziv

My interview with 2022 Black List writer for his script Court 17.

Here are links to the entire 6-part series which has run this week.

Part 1: “I’m a huge believer that anyone can become what they want to do with craft if they work hard enough at it.”

Part 2: “It started with that concept of merging two genres into one that had never been done before.”

Part 3: “The movie is about letting go of control, and being OK with what is. That’s something that’s a powerful lesson in my life.”

Part 4: “I want to talk about this obsession we have in this culture of winning versus losing that I grew up in.”

Part 5: “I’ve been writing for 14 years, and I’ve been hearing nothing but nos for 14 years. I’ve written every single day as if I was a professional screenwriter.”

Part 6: “The only thing you need to focus on, the only thing that matters, are today’s pages.”

Elad is repped by Bellevue Productions.
