'Blaze', 'How To Please A Woman', 'Sissy' and 'Sweet As' will contend for the best original feature prize at this year’s AWGIE Awards, while 'Mrs Harris Goes to Paris', 'The Stranger' and 'The Drover's Wife The Legend of Molly Johnson' are up for the adapted gong.

"I feel really proud of representing the Latin community... I can recognise the effort of the writers, casting directors and producers that are pushing for true diversity in Australian TV. In the past I didn't really think that I would have a healthy career in Australia. That perception changed these past two years."
Screen Australia has announced $5.6 million of production funding for three feature films and returning seasons of Stan's 'Bump' and 10's 'The Secret She Keeps'.
Stan has announced a slew of new local commissions as it ramps up ambitious plans to have around a third of its first-run slate come from original production.
With Roadshow Rough Diamond's 'Bump' reportedly breaking viewing records for Stan since its launch on New Year's Day, the streamer has ordered a second season.
Stan used an luncheon at the Sydney Opera House today to unveil a 25-strong originals slate for 2024, including several new commissions - four drama series, four documentaries and a feature film.
The cast and crew of 'Bump' are heading back on the streets of Sydney, with comedian Steph Tisdell and paralympian Dylan Alcott added to the mix for the fourth season of the Stan Original.
