The OKRE Fund: Thriller Lab is a pilot programme supporting 10 writer-producer duos to develop early-stage thriller ideas for film, TV, video games or digital shortform. Backed by \u00a375,000 in funding, the lab supports daring, gripping thrillers grounded in real-world science that interrogate the human condition and are deepened by collaboration with academics and charities. Each successful duo receives \u00a37,500 to cover time, travel expenses, and collaborator fees, plus entry into a structured three-month development programme (January-March 2026). The programme includes workshops, collaborator matchmaking, direct coaching from OKRE, and the opportunity to pitch projects to OKRE and industry partners at the end of the lab. Online Q&A sessions are available on 15th October and 3rd November 2025, with decision notifications by 15th December 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
