Quick Glance: 'The Holdovers' Plagiarism Controversy: Writer Accuses of Theft
- A recent report in Variety details British screenwriter Simon Stephenson's argument alleging that Focus Features' Oscar-nominated screenplay for the highly acclaimed 'The Holdovers' is remarkably similar to his own 2013 Black List spec script, 'Frisco' - with Stephenson suggesting that director Alexander Payne likely read his script.
- 'The Holdovers' has a sole credited screenwriter: David Hemingson, a former entertainment attorney who transitioned to a TV writer and producer in the late '90s, having worked on shows like 'Just Shoot Me!', 'Kitchen Confidential', 'How I Met Your Mother', and 'Don't Trust the B— in Apartment 23'. This marks Hemingson's first produced feature film.
- Efforts were made by IndieWire to contact Focus, WGA West, and representatives for Payne, Hemingson, and Stephenson, with responses pending.
- Variety's report suggests the possibility that Payne may have been exposed to Stephenson's script prior to its development.
