Program Overview


Disney Entertainment Television Writing Program

The primary goal of the 2026 Disney Entertainment Television Writing Program (the "Program") is to staff Program Writers on Disney Entertainment Television ("DET") series as staff writers during the Program year. Staffing is not guaranteed. The twelve (12)-month Program is tentatively set to begin in January 2026 and end in mid-February of the following year. Please note, time frames are subject to change.


Program Details

For the first few months of the Program, Program Writers participate in a professional development curriculum designed to better prepare them for staffing consideration, including developing, writing, and polishing at least one (1) original pre-existing pilot script to be used as a staffing sample. The Program also aims to provide engagement with executives, producers and/or showrunners, which is designed to facilitate relationships that can prove invaluable in developing a television writing career. Additional past activities have included:


  • Workshops led by veteran television writers, producers and Program alumni
  • Networking mixers with executives
