The full program and the Sunday program can be found below.
Deadline’s goal is to remind you over the course of two days of the breadth and depth of what we’ve been looking at over the past year, and in some cases, who we are round see. Our Contenders events are designed to give you a taste of what’s out there and maybe encourage you to try it all. We do this through informed and fun conversations with key creatives and talent across a variety of shows.
Follow Deadline’s Saturday and Sunday coverage both on Deadline.com and on social media on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and TikTok using the hashtag #DeadlineContenders. On Tuesday we launch the streaming website with the full video of all panels.
Deadline contender television is sponsored by Apple TV+, Coverfly, Eyepetizer, Final Draft, Los Siete Misterios, Michter’s and Village Roadshow Entertainment. Partners include Four Seasons Resort Maui, The American Pavilion, Julia Wong Designs and Pamring.
