For the first time ever in the 20 year history of The Black List, a screenwriter has topped the survey of the most liked unproduced screenplays two years in a row, that being Travis Braun.

This year Braun’s screenplay One Night Only scored 60 mentions, while on Black List 2023 he had Bad Boy at 49 mentions. One Night Only follows two strangers who scramble to find someone to sleep with on the one night of the year when premarital sex is legal.

The UTA and Echo Lake Entertainment repped Braun’s Bad Boy follows a rescue dog who suspects that his loving new owner is a serial killer.

The 20th edition of the Black List spanned 83 screenplays from 91 writers, up from last year’s count of 76 feature screenplays by 80 writers.
