So great he answered this bc hollywood is the one job you really have no idea or way to really break in. It’s like a club and the only invite is through a lucky connection.

Good point. People often overlook that breaking in means different things depending on where you live and what you want to achieve.

I'm hoping Michael's pilot ("O.U.R.S") is developed. His concept for the adventure/mystery series is quite unique.

Tylor Sheridan hates notes. Specially when it’s an original script. He says none can give notes to an original script. I don’t think he’s 100% right on that.

Where did you found out about Sheridan's attitude to notes? I'm not surprised, as it is consistent with everything else I've heard him say. Did you see my Sicario series? I think Villeneuve made some significant changes for the better.... Cheers, Karel

@@TheStoryDepartment been watching a lot of videos on Sheridan. And in one of those videos, might have been on DP/30 , or at a Q/A at a festival, he says he doesn’t take notes on original. Sicario and Hell or high water were both original and he didn’t do notes or rewrites on those. The movies were shot based on the first draft. Now I also heard that Deni and Del toro made changes to the shooting script, removed almost 90% of Del toros dialogue in Sicario.
