Hello, st.sleepy! I'm really impressed with how much you've put into this. I hope you don't mind my asking, but would you like to look at a sci-fi pilot of mine? I've got a summary here, plus some links to a deck and some comparable films below:
REDNER is a dark, mythic, and character-driven sci-fi epic with a unique and uncompromising voice. It confidently leans into psychological decay, body horror, and moral ambiguity, while building an original world that's both dystopian and mythologically rich.
The protagonist—Redner Grunwald—is fascinating: a character warped by violence, grief, and a yearning for control, whose arc descends deeply into mechanical monstrosity before shading toward redemption.
This script reads like a combination of cyberpunk noir and Shakespearean tragedy, with stylistic echoes of Dune, The Batman, and Akira.
Producer Roslyn Fleischer is currently involved (former CAA, Paramount, Castle Rock), and I've worked professionally as a writer for the past eight years across plays, graphic novels, and screen projects. Three episodes of REDNER are complete, along with a companion spin-off and a standalone horror pilot.
Several actors are also on board, including:
- Cody Cowell (Dark Mean City)
- Hayley Holmes (K.R.A.P.),
- Sian Reeves (The Following Events Are Based on a Pack of Lies),
- Maci O'Brien (Accidental Spy),
- and Michael Middleton (Wrong for Right).
If this sounds like something you’d be interested in reading, I’d be glad to send over the script.
