Their slate spans auteur-led film and premium television, but they publish no statement of what they are looking for, so this is read off the client list rather than stated.
Read from their recent slate, not stated by them.
Notable work: Clients and projects named on their own literary page include Lynne Ramsay (Die My Love), Ed Solomon (The Christophers), Rose Heiney (Down Cemetery Road) and Thea Gajic (Surviving Earth).
How to approach
There is nothing to send. Their contact page states plainly that they do not accept unsolicited submissions and delete them in line with GDPR, and no query route, referral route or submissions address appears anywhere on the site.
The literary page publishes an address for requesting the client list, which is not a submissions route and should not be used as one. Treating a rights or client-list line as a way in is how a polite enquiry becomes a deleted one.
What the site is genuinely useful for is calibration. The literary list names writers beside their projects, so you can see the level at which this company operates before deciding whether it belongs on your list at all.
The PreList verdict
Who this is for: writers already represented, or with a producer willing to make an introduction. Everything on their site points at relationships rather than an inbox.
Who should skip it: anyone approaching cold. The refusal is flat and carries no softer alternative, so there is no lighter version of the approach worth trying.

Frequently asked questions
Does 42 accept unsolicited scripts?
No. Their contact page states they do not accept unsolicited submissions and delete them from their records in line with GDPR.
Is there a query route instead?
None is published. The only literary address on the site is for requesting their client list, which is not a submissions route.
Getting ready to approach 42?
Every door here reads to reject. The PreList gives your script a full read first: coverage across 11 metrics, formatting and completeness checks, and a rewrite room to act on the notes before anything reaches a submissions inbox.
