Hi all! I’m Omar, an author and screenwriter, currently developing an indie Sci-Fi/Horror story called War of Extinction.
It’s a tale of humanity on the brink, apes evolving into a new society… and the rise of a terrifying hybrid.
Sharing my teaser poster here – I’d love your feedback on the concept and story direction.

War of Extinction sounds interesting! I think what sets it apart from Rise of the Planet of the Apes is "the rise of a terrifying hybrid."

Thank you so much, Maurice! I really appreciate the warm welcome and the helpful links. I’m glad you noticed the uniqueness of War of Extinction compared to Planet of the Apes—the terrifying hybrid is at the core of my vision. I look forward to connecting more with the community!
Do you think audiences today are ready for hybrid creatures that mix primal and extraterrestrial elements?”
You're welcome, Omar Salih. I think audiences today are ready for hybrid creatures that mix primal and extraterrestrial elements. I'd watch War of Extinction/read the book! Your concept is kinda like Rise of the Planet of the Apes meets Alien: Romulus. Is War of Extinction a movie concept or book concept?

Monkeys + horror = a combo I never knew I needed, but now I really want to see it on screen!
Such a cool idea I’m also working on my own series right now, and projects like this give me the energy to keep going

Hi Harry! It’s a Sci-Fi/Horror project I’m developing — right now in book/script form with teaser posters, and the goal is to turn it into a feature film.”
