While there are many modern retellings of biblical classics like David and Goliath or the death of Saul and Jonathan, few have explored the timeless truths and universal struggles of the David and Saul story.

Brown, a script doctor and writing instructor who honed his craft with Act One and Lin Pictures (now Rideback). His most recent screenplay credit is Blue Ridge (2020).
