Serious Agents or Producers interested only please
My name is Stephen Atkinson and I am a new screenwriter. I was wondering if you would be interested in reading the script of my screenplay Alaska Incident, which is a fictional military mini-series for TV but can be turned into a movie script:
Script is copyrighted with the United States copyright office and is registered with WGA. Should you wish to view the script in its entirety I can e-mail you a copy.
Log line:
Americans secretly weaponize a virus; Soviets have become aware. Colonel Milosevic, ruthless, determined, cold-hearted, and egotistic, needs to succeed, but Sergeant Peter Hawthorn, warm, friendly, with inner strength, and Hill 352 stand between him and escape. Peter Hawthorn must recover the virus, save men, and avert a war and possible pandemic.
Synopsis:
Peter Hawthorn (Main character) a young man of 22 leads a group of ten Brits to Alaska as an exchange with a US Army missile defense unit.
Unknown to Peter and his men there is a secret laboratory under the installation where a secret is being kept quiet. Against the Geneva convention the US Military has created a weapon a virus created from the common flu/ Anthrax.
The Soviet Union has become aware of the existence of the virus and through fear have devised a plan to obtain it by what ever means necessary.
Colonel Yuri Milosevic (Nemesis) is a ruthless commander of the Soviet union a clever tactician is assigned to the task. Yuri takes command of the 44th Spetsnaz after he has presented his plan of action to General Dubinsky.
Yuri leads a company of 160 men into Alaska by a daring parachute drop in the middle of the storm.The goal is to mercilessly eliminate all personnel in Fort Brookes and return to the Soviet Union with no witnesses.
In Alaska the arctic front approaches as dark clouds begin brewing into the worst snowstorm in decades grounding all allied aircraft.
This creates the perfect storm as the Spetsnaz begin to put into play their daring plan of operations.
Peter and his men have arrived at Fort Brookes to a rip roaring welcome from 3rd platoon commanded by Master Sergeant Collins.
The Brits lead by Staff Sergeant Cowley Peter his second in command are taken under the wing of Collins as they prepare for a first day of exercise in the field; an exercise that would prove to save them from annihilation when the Spetsnaz attack Fort Brookes.
When the survivors return to the Fort the next day due to the intensity of the storm the realization of what has transpired is evident.
Peter, Cowley and Collins must come up with a plan of action to chase down the Spetsnaz to prevent their escape across the Alaskan tundra to the safety of Russia.
Yuri has to pass through Brookes forest to escape through Abbots pass a mountain chain but Hill 352 stands between Abbots pass and Brookes forest this creates a problem for the Soviets.
Collins is ambushed in Brookes forest with only two survivors escaping to warn Peter and Cowley.
The only communications destroyed during the raid on Fort Brookes means Peter and Cowley have to rely on the sat coms in the British snow cat but battery life is limited.
Communication is established with NORAD but help is not forth coming until the storm clears.
Peter must obtain the virus if he is going to be successful and prevent Yuri returning to the Soviet union a hero but one thing stands in the Soviets way...hill 352 and a determined Brit. Set in November 1988 Whilst Milosevic and Peter fight it out on the battlefield President Reagan and Gorbachev fight it out on the political front leading to a gritty conclusion.
