FIRST MAN ON EARTH
By Darren Howell

GENRE: Sci-fi
LOGLINE: A disgraced, ex-FBI agent must uncover the shocking truth behind the excavation of a fossilized human skeleton within a 65 million year old Tyrannosaurus Rex. As the identity of the skeleton is revealed to be that of the agent himself, the race is on to discover how he got there and why all this is linked to a series of bizarre natural disasters that could ultimately lead to the end of the world as we know it.

SYNOPSIS:

I attended the Hollywood Pitchfest in 2005 with this script and got picked up by my first manager off the strength of the original draft. I joined forces with a fellow Brit to work on it with me and together we ripped it down and rebuilt it... about 243 times! It's the toughest script I've ever written. TIME TRAVEL IS A COMPLETE HEADF%@K!!! It went out wide in Hollywood twice and, although it garnered some solid interest, it never sold. Although it did get us repped at WME. It still remains the favourite of all my scripts for it's sheer scale, spectacle (budget!) and multi-twist ending.
