THE WOMEN’S LIST UNVEILS 2025 FINALISTS: A CELEBRATION OF EXCEPTIONAL SCREENWRITING BY WOMEN

Non-Profit Celebrates Female Driven Storytellers

LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, July 29, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The Women’s List, the trailblazing advocate for female voices in screenwriting, is thrilled to announce its 2025 Scripts List finalists, spotlighting compelling unproduced scripts penned by women—across all genres, for every audience.

Unlike traditional contests, the nonprofit is a curated “treasure hunt” for extraordinary scripts written by women, not a competition. Whether the scripts are thrillers, comedies, dramas, or genre-benders, every selection is hand-chosen for its originality, strong characters, and cinematic potential—boasting the kinds of dynamic female roles the industry wants and needs.

Founded by a passionate board of creative women which includes Mia Certic (Co-Founder), Jan Kimbrough (Chair), as well as board members Maggie Levin, Christine Luby, Kira Kalush, Lisa Seidman and Emily Schmidt, The Women’s List is driven by one vision: to discover brilliant scripts written by women and connect those writers to the producers, directors, actors, agents, and managers who crave great material. “We aren’t just about women’s stories,” said Co-Founder Jan Kimbrough. “We’re about bold, innovative storytelling—by women, for everyone.”

“We want this list to land on every desk in town—from producers and showrunners to actors and agents,” says board member Christine Luby. “We’re just getting started—join us as we help reshape the industry, one script at a time.”

This year’s 2025 Finalists are elevating storytellers while opening doors of opportunities. After many long nights and more than a few coffee refills, the nonprofit is proud to announce this year’s finalists.
