In 2016, Syfy approached The Mill+ to create a teaser film for their then-upcoming show "Krypton," to screen at the NBCUniversal Upfronts.

We were provided a broad overview of the arc of the first season, but had no access to any materials from the show itself. It fell to us to draw from almost a century of reference materials to invent a new vision of Kryptonian civilization – its terrain, architecture, and technology.

I wrote and co-directed a script from the perspective of an elder Kryptonian in mourning, as the cataclysm unfolds in reverse in one, uninterrupted take.
