PLEASE NOTE: This exclusive Stage 32 webinar is now available to watch on-demand and no longer live.

"Showrunner" is everywhere right now.

Trade headlines. Podcasts. Every conversation about the golden age of television. And yet — most writers couldn't tell you exactly what the job requires. Or how to get there. Or what separates the ones who thrive from the ones who get the title and struggle.

Matt Corman can.

He co-created Daredevil: Born Again for Marvel. Co-created and ran the Golden Globe-nominated Covert Affairs for USA Network — five seasons. Showran The Enemy Within and The Brave for NBC. Containment for CW from Warner Bros. TV. He has lived every phase of this job — the writers' room, the production floor, the edit bay.

He's not speaking theoretically. He's handing you the blueprint he wishes someone had given him.

In this exclusive Stage 32 webinar Matt pulls back the curtain on everything that actually matters. What a showrunner is responsible for — creatively and operationally. The three paths writers take to get there. The six core attributes that separate those who thrive from those who don't. And the three spheres of responsibility — the written word, production, and post — that define the job from day one through final delivery.

He'll also walk you through a real day in the life. The pace. The pressure. The decisions that never stop coming. You'll see exactly what survival looks like at this level — and what it takes to not just survive it, but lead it.

This is the insider knowledge that changes everything about how you navigate this industry.
