LARGE GUY – Jarrid Terrell
SUSIE – Christina Santos
BLONDE – Holly Sarchfield
TEACHER – Lorry Ayers

1. What is your screenplay about?

No Hope for Gomez! is the story of a guy who’s convinced life is verifiably harder on him than it is on others.

JASON SPARKS – Jarrid Terrell
STEVEN CAMPBELL – Geoff Mays
JUDGE/PERKINS – David Occhipinti
VICKY/HANNA – Lorry Ayers

Get to know writer Stan Williamson:

1. What is your TV PILOT about?

Named by her father after a football pass with little chance of success, a quick-witted former pro beach volleyball player takes on the exclusive boys club of professional sports by becoming a sports agent/attorney.

The similarity of the world of Hail Mary to that of The Good Wife suggests that it could capture the same enduring popularity. The sports agency with its sexy young players replaces the law firm with its stuffy older clients. Instead of solid and reliable, Hail Mary is current, it’s hot, and it delivers the excitement that only…
