I feel that Joe Carnahan is one of the most underrated screenwriter in the business. He’s best known for being a director but his writing is remarkable. White Jazz, Killing Pablo, The Grey, the list goes on. Alex had the pleasure of sitting down with Joe and discussed his career, the film business, his writing process and more.
The screenplays below are the only ones that are available online. If you find any of his missing screenplays please leave the link in the comment section.
When you are done reading take a listen to Apple’s #1 Screenwriting Podcast The Bulletproof Screenwriting Podcast, with guest like Oscar Winner Eric Roth, James V. Hart, David Chase, John August, Oliver Stone and more.
