Overview
Wolverine Origins Lost Chapters is an Independent Pilot. Focusing on the time frame from when Logan was shot in the head with an adamantium bullet and lost his memories, to right before he joins the X-Men. This gray area of Wolverine’s story has really not been touched upon yet. This film fills in those missing gaps. Though we absolutely love what Twentieth Century Fox did with the character, there is much more we would have liked to have seen. This film highlights Logan's lost chapters.

Markiss McFadden - Writer, Director, Actor and Producer
 

Markiss McFadden started off his career as an actor only in 2009. He is known for his role in Michael Bay's “Transformers: Dark Of The Moon,” where he played the baby-faced soldier alongside actor Josh Duhamel.

Immediately after shooting "Transformers," Markiss was determined and decided to create his own production company called McFadden Family Films.

Markiss wrote, produced, starred and directed his first feature film, titled “Love Triangle.” The film is still currently successful and was just released on DVD Nov. 2017. The film has won more than a dozen awards on the film festival circuit. The success of “Love Triangle” drew many filmmakers to McFadden Family Films to get their film projects moving forward.

Since “Love Triangle,” Markiss has directed and/or produced five features and four shorts. Many have yet to be released. His most recent film, “Executor,” which he produced and starred in alongside Paul Sorvino (“Goodfellas”) and Mischa Barton (“The Sixth Sense” and the TV series “The O.C.”), was released in September 2017.

We need our fans to help us make this film without compromising because of budget restrictions. That's why we are only aiming for $75,000. We are planning to take the final product to the next level. With the help of the fans we can turn this into an Original Series on your favorite online movie platform!”

We're not looking for charity, we're looking for an early sales venue - that's why our rewards reflect fair market value. Don't think of it as a donation, think of it as a pre-purchase. If you want to see this film, buy it now through Indiegogo - you'll probably get a better deal from us than from whatever retailer ends up selling it in your country, and you'll help make our film better!

 

 

Film is a complicated technical exercise, and often unforeseen difficulties arise causing budget and scheduling overruns. That being said, we are an experienced professional group and have successfully completed and released every film we have started. We have produced several heavy projects this past year and see no reason why we shouldn't continue to accomplish our goals. Also, we acknowledge that all film rights to "Wolverine" are a licensed property of FOX and they have the final say in any Wolverine venture.
