THE MINORITY REPORT
Opening Ceremony for the 2021 Minority Report Cohort.
Introduced in 2020, The Minority Report was an industry-vetted Fellowship program for the top diverse screenwriters enrolled in undergraduate or graduate educational institutions. Made by students, for students, it was the first-ever initiative of its kind with partners like IMDb, The Black List, and United Talent Agency.
Submissions were collected from Diverso’s network of 180+ universities and vetted by a rigorous selection committee of assistants and emerging executives across Hollywood. The top twelve scripts were then evaluated by Industry Jury members, who ultimately decided on the Fellows.
Selected students were offered an extensive professional platform to break into the film and television industry including educational panels, financial resources, individualized mentorship, and introductions to agents and managers.
Over the course of four years, The Minority Report welcomed 17 fellows, supported by industry panelists and jury members like Adele Lim (CRAZY RICH ASIANS), Dede Gardner (Co-President, Plan B Entertainment), and Kemp Powers (ACROSS THE SPIDER VERSE).
The Minority Report hosted its last cohort in 2023, with the best parts of the program being consolidated into The Diverso Fellowship.
