Job Description

I would like you to take part in the upcoming lengthy cable television film adaptations of Tennessee Williams's classic stage plays 'Sweet Bird of Youth', 'Cat on a Hot Tin Roof', 'The Rose Tattoo' and 'The Night of the Iguana' as the supervising producer.

And in addition to these upcoming lengthy cable television film adaptations of these four plays I also would like you to take part in the upcoming lengthy cable television film adaptation of 'The Glass Menagerie' also by Tennessee Williams as well and the upcoming cable television film adaptation of David Berry's 'The Whales of August' as the supervising producer.

These plays are no strangers to the silver screen - they have previously been adapted into films in the past.

The plot of 'The Glass Menagerie' goes like this:

A son longs to escape from his stifling home, where his genteel mother worries about the future prospects of his lame, shy sister.

The plot of 'Sweet Bird of Youth' goes like this:

A gigolo and drifter, Chance Wayne, who returns to his home town as the companion of a faded movie star, Alexandra Del Lago (travelling incognito as Princess Kosmonopolis), whom he hopes to use to help him break into the movies. The main reason for his homecoming is to get back what he had in his youth: primarily, his old girlfriend, whose father had run him out of town years before.

The plot of 'Cat on a Hot Tin Roof' goes like this:

An alcoholic Brick Pollitt and femme fatale Margaret face troubles before a family reunion.

The plot of 'The Rose Tattoo' goes like this:

An Italian-American widow in Mississippi who has allowed herself to withdraw from the world after her husband's death, and expects her daughter to do the same.

The plot of 'The Night of the Iguana' goes like this:

A defrocked Episcopal clergyman leads a bus-load of middle-aged Baptist women on a tour of the Mexican coast and comes to terms with the failure haunting his life.

The plot of 'The Whales of August' goes like this:

Two elderly sisters, both widows, who are living together in 1954 in a summer cottage in Maine. The older sister, Elizabeth "Libby" is being taken care of by her younger sister, Sarah. The sisters sit on their porch and watch the whales in the ocean and discuss the trials and tribulations of their lives.

There are no changes to these scripts after all.

The budget of each film will be $68,000,000 million.

First five films will shoot at various soundstages in Hollywood in California starting from 17th February 2020 and the sixth and final film will shoot on location in Maine starting from July 2020.

Each film will shoot for 24 days.

Apart from supervising the production of these films the production of these films needs budgeting and scheduling, project planning, crewing, casting, day-to-day production management, post production supervision and script breakdown.

This film will be shown on US cable TV and other TV networks worldwide next fall.

It will starts at 9.00pm and finishes at 11.30pm in the evening or 12.00am in the morning and 'The Whales of August' finishes at 11.00pm in the evening.

Please apply if you are interested.
