Applications for the 23rd edition of Screen International’s Screen Stars of Tomorrow, our annual portfolio of new talent from the UK and Ireland, will close on May 3.
Applications are open to UK and Irish citizens and long-term residents of either country. There is no upper or lower age limit, but applicants should be at an early stage in their film career, demonstrate exceptional promise and be ready to progress to the next level.
Applicants should use this Google Form and need to attach a short biography, a headshot and contact details as well as a statement about why they are applying. These fields are mandatory. Candidates also have the option to include a link to their IMDB page if they have one, and an industry reference to support their application.
The field is open to producers, directors, writers and actors. Producers should ideally have one feature film to their credit. Directors, conversely, should be on the point of making their first feature, although rare exceptions may be made for those who have completed their debut feature. Actors must be working in cinema as well as TV.
Screen International’s awards and box office editor Charles Gant takes over the selection process for the first time this year. He can be contacted at screenstarsoftomorrow@gmail.com.
Last year’s Stars Of Tomorrow cohort included actors Owen Cooper, Kieron Moore, Bella Maclean and Emma Laird, filmmaker Ted Evans and writer Jess O’Kane.
