All movies begin with a script. If the screenwriter is also involved in production, the director may ask the screenwriter to re-write a scene or alter the action in some way during filming. As well, a new screenwriter can be employed to work on the set during filming, in order to fulfill the director's requests for edits and re-writes.
The basic element of any film is a script. Without a story, there is no funding, no directing or acting or other ancillary work that can be done by all the professionals who collaborate to make a film.

The screenwriter may be involved on-set during filming, but this is not always true.

What is a screenwriters role in making movies?

Your answer depends on both the screenwriter and the producer. It is possible that a screenwriter was paid in full for the script, in which case another screenwriter may be hired 'on set' to re-write scenes depending on variables that dictate edits. For example, if the original script was set in Chicago, and the shooting location is Monte Carlo, certain elements of dialog or plot could be adjusted to accommodate this change. There are movie sets where certain actors 'demand' more lines, and the producer and director agree. In these cases, the screenwriter adds dialog -- screen time -- for the actor making the demand. Finally, there are 'script doctors' who re-cast completed scripts according to 'notes' given by other participants, such as producers, director(s), actors and so forth, prior to finalizing the shooting script.
