The Next Brilliant Career: Netflix Launches Nationwide Search for Australia's Next Great Screenwriter

To celebrate the upcoming release of My Brilliant Career and the legacy of pioneering author Miles Franklin, Netflix ANZ, in partnership with the Australian Writers' Guild and Australia's eight State and Territory Screen Agencies, is today launching 'The Next Brilliant Career'.

The initiative invites emerging Australian writers who identify as women or non-binary to submit original, authentically-Australian scripted concepts for the chance to receive invaluable feedback directly from Netflix in developing their story for screen. 

Following application and eligibility check via the state Screen Agencies dedicated online portals, an independent Australian Writers' Guild panel will shortlist applications. One finalist from each state and territory will then be invited to pitch their concept live at Netflix ANZ headquarters in Sydney in October, and will receive direct feedback from Netflix in developing their story for screen.
