It's worth noting that many publishers do not accept unsolicited submissions of screenplays. Many screenplays are published as part of a film's tie-in merchandise, such as movie novelizations or "making of" books that include the screenplay as an appendix. Here are a few publishers that have published screenplays as standalone books:
Faber and Faber
Bloomsbury
Vintage Books
Broadway Books
Knopf
Farrar, Straus and Giroux
Pantheon Books
Newmarket Press
Overlook Press
Newmarket Press
This is just a small sampling of the many publishers based in the United States that have published screenplays as standalone books. There are also many smaller independent publishers that may be open to publishing screenplays. It's always a good idea to research and carefully read the submission guidelines of any publisher before submitting your work.
