If you own a script that was lawfully published, you may sell it to anyone you like, but you may not make a copy of it for any reason, unless you created the script yourself. Note that “create a script” does NOT mean you laboriously copied the words from an existing movie, as that would be a “derivative work” and still a copyright infringement if you were to give it to anyone else.
