Most likely directors for studio satirical fantasy

[peakbeach]

My spec script is a hybrid of Comedy, Adventure, Fantasy, and Sci-Fi genres. :eek :lol

The comedy is specifically social satire, centered on a strong theme, possibly a high concept – funny but serious and intelligent (nothing gross, pervert, or stupid – although Jim Carrey, Steve Martin, Robin Wiliams, and Jack Black are high on my protagonist list). It’s a medium-to-high budget studio-targeted movie. :lol ;)

Assuming my (great) script falls in the hands of one of these directors, who do you think might be more interested in pursuing it? Or whose doors should I (or my agent) be knocking on?


Terry Gilliam
Blake Edwards
Ron Howard
Rob Reiner
Steven Spielberg
Tim Burton
Robert Zemeckis
George Lucas
James Cameron
Brian De Palma

I’m sure I failed to list a bunch of other likely directors. My original choice was Stanley Kubrick… but he’s no longer with us. Woody Allen and Mel Brooks only direct their own stuff... so I didn't bother to list them. :eek

Regarding producers, I don't know where to begin... but eventually I will. :eek

Thanks in advance for your help. :D

I'd make a list of similar films made in the last 5 years, then find out who directed them.
