Scriptchat is honored to have screenwriter Chris Sparling join us to guest on our USA chat Sunday, May 18th at 5:00PM PDT (8PM EDT).

Chris Sparling @chrissparling is from Providence, Rhode Island.  He wrote the 2010 film BURIED, for which he won "Best Original Screenplay" from the National Board of Review of Motion Pictures, as well as a Goya Award from the Spanish Academy of Cinematic Art and Sciences in the same category. His Black List script, ATM, was produced by Gold Circle Films and released by IFC in 2012.  His most recent script, SEA OF TREES, is slated to begin production in late 2014, starring Matthew McConaughey and directed by Gus Van Sant.  Chris's directorial debut, THE ATTICUS INSTITUTE, produced by The Safran Company, is expected to be released in 2014.

We had the honor of having Chris on a previous chat in 2011. Read the transcript here.
