Prequel to "End Game" & "Insurrection"

A sensational female "James Bond/Jason Bourne" finally appears as a much more exciting and multi-dimensional character who engages in terrifyingly plausible real world scenarios.


Michelle Burns is a beautiful and intelligent Oxford student who loses her beloved brother in the 9/11 attack on the Pentagon. She become a lethal anti-terrorist agent for many years before her father, the CIA Director, convinces her to become his lead analyst on Iran.  


Michelle observes the emergence of a conspiracy between Iran and Russia to control the Middle East oil supply, destroy the USA oil infrastructure and dictate the global price of oil to devastate the economies of western civilization.


Her warnings are ignored by the clueless American president as the plot and the Iranian nuclear time bomb races toward a catastrophe.


Karim is a rogue Ayatollah with global power ambitions. He murders the "Supreme Leader" in Iran, blames it on America and takes control of the Iranian military and nuclear arsenal. The Russians then covertly support his brazen attacks to seize control of the Persian Gulf oil states and his devastating attack on the USA oil and gas infrastructure. 


Sophisticated Iranian commando attacks in the USA target the oil and gas infrastructure as well as Michelle and her father. Michelle survives but her parents are murdered. Michelle is devastated but must rise from her despair to deal with the threat from Karim.


Once Karim has control of the Middle East oilfields, he can threaten to destroy the oil industry infrastructure and launch his nuclear weapons if he or Iran are attacked. Michelle realizes that the only way to stop Karim's plot it to destroy Karim and his control team in their Qom, Iran bunker.


Bombing the deep bunker is not a sure option for success and it would trigger retribution by Karim. Michelle volunteers for an ultra-dangerous clandestine insertion into the bunker as the only option to stop Karim.  


“Michelle Burns” represents a real chance to launch a major, multi decade film franchise in a genre that averages $426 million in global box office/DVD revenues.


"Divided We Fall" is the first film project in the "Michelle Burns" trilogy that tracks the progression of a sensational young woman who travels from young Oxford student to the most brilliant, skillful, effective and lethal clandestine operator on earth. She takes on terrifyingly plausible real world scenarios in thought provoking, triumph of the human spirit stories that transcend the shallow story telling, one dimensional characters and gratuitous/repetitive action, violence, depravity and CGI that dominate the action/ clandestine genre and modern cinema in general.
