Which would could come at the end of this sentence?

ABOUT or FOR?
2 None of the players that remain in the tournament have won it in the past./remaining have won it in the past.
Could you tell me what you think about this sentence and tell me how you'd say it?

2 The screenwriter closed his eyes to think up scene for his next show./think about what he could write for his next show. (CAN BOTH BE SAID HOW WOULD YOU SAY EACH?)
thank you
