Lustig & Thornton - Screenwriters

A couple screenwriters who hope to give a little back and have some fun by writing our next spec LIVE.

Ben Lustig & Jake Thornton burst on the scene when their spec WINTER’S KNIGHT sparked a 5-studio bidding war before selling to Sony for 7 figures. A fantasy-adventure about a Viking warrior whose epic journey leads him to become the legendary Santa Claus, the script established the duo as imaginative masters of adaptation. Since then, they have penned multiple projects for Sony, Amazon, Universal, and Warner Brothers, including a sci-fi adventure inspired by the life of H.G. Wells, an animated series about werewolves in ancient Rome, and a pilot based on the juggernaut video game franchise, Final Fantasy. In 2020, Ben and Jake sold their spec script, THE PRINCESS, to 20th Century Studios and Hulu with Original Film and Derek Kolstad producing. Starring Joey King and directed by Le-Van Kiet, production was underway by summer 2021, and in July of 2022, the film made its debut on Hulu
