Between 1995 and 2024, almost nine thousand movies based on original screenplays were released across the United States and Canada. The figure is higher than the number of films based on all other source materials on display altogether. Original screenplays were also the source material of productions that earned the highest revenue at the so-called North American box office for nearly three decades.
