CreativeWorks Acquires Rights to “High School Sweethearts” Screenplay

Recently formed CreativeWorks Entertainment has acquired the rights to the screenplay "High School Sweathearts," an original script by Colin McCormack.

This comedy (in the vein of "Mean Girls", "Election", "Clueless") skews popularity & power, relationships, adolescence, and modern celebrity in a setting so near and dear to our hearts––high school.

"High School Sweethearts" is a multi-narrative story that follows Todd and Julia (the most adorable & popular couple ever) through their 4-years of high school. Narrated from the not-so-objective perspectives of Todd’s buddy, Julia’s BFF, and the school guidance counselor, each character explains the events that led to one of the biggest blowups the school has ever seen. And when they become seniors, the stakes couldn't be any higher.

Launched in June 2007, CreativeWorks Entertainment is a film production company. The company’s mission is to develop and produce movies for theatrical distribution with unique characters and narratives that push the boundaries of what we are used to: Movies that tell engaging, underserved and entertaining stories that are thought provoking and moving on a social and/or emotional level and relevant and appealing to a wide audience.
