How to approach
Their contact page carries an FAQ answer headed "How do I approach the agency for representation?", and it splits in two. The first half is the actors route. The second half is one sentence for creatives, pointing at a separate creatives address, and that is the screenwriting door.
Their Creatives roster does list clients billed as Screenwriter alongside writers and writer-directors, so the route is real rather than nominal.
What it does not tell you is what to send. No material list, no criteria, no format. Keep the first email short and let it ask rather than assume: who you are, what you have written, and an offer to send the script. Do not use the actors instructions on the same page, which ask for a Spotlight link and have nothing to do with you.
The PreList verdict
Who this is for: writers who are comfortable with an unstructured approach. There is a real door here and a real screenwriting list behind it, and the absence of guidelines means a short, well-judged email is not competing against a house format.
Who should skip it: anyone who needs to know the rules before they knock. This is the thinnest published policy of any approachable entry in the directory, which cuts both ways. Nothing tells you what they want, and nothing tells you they will reply.
