124 | Elvis Screenwriter Jeremy Doner on Writing Biopics (and Avoiding Common Pitfalls) - a podcast by Meg LeFauve & Lorien McKenna

Jeremy Doner is a co-writer on one of 2022's most exciting movies: EVLIS, directed by Baz Luhrmann. For his work on the script, Jeremy is nominated for an Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Arts Award. Before Elvis, he was staffed on two critically acclaimed TV crime dramas: DAMAGES and THE KILLING, writing multiple episodes and scoring WGA-award nominations for both shows.
On today's show, he discusses how he got involved with Elvis, why he connected with the story, and his "take" - one of the most important components of pitching a biopic.JOIN OUR PATREON: www.patreon.com/thescreenwritinglife
