Imagine a team of people who have worked in movies, in Hollywood, like War for The Planet of the Apes, Tron: Legacy, X-Men: First Class, Guardians of the Galaxy, Sherlock Holmes, Pirates of the Caribbean, Batman V Superman and Captain America: The Winter Soldiers AND Game of Thrones all getting together to work on a project helmed by a Pakistani. Yepp, it’s happening!
Umar Agha, a film graduate from Columbia University, saw the 9/11 aftermath unfold in front of his own eyes.
Sick of the extremism that everyone associates with Islam, he decided to research about the history of his faith which led him to discover the legend that is Saladin (Salah ad-Din Yusuf ibn Ayyub).
He was overwhelmed by how Saladin rose above all the hate and violence prevalent during his time. Umar decided that instead of going to producers in Hollywood, with his idea, he would come to Pakistan and shoot in Lahore.
The scale at which this movie is being made is insane and unlike anything ever been made in Pakistan, before.
Battles, animation, and an epic story line, Agha is giving even the biggest filmmakers a run for their money. But he’s in need of funds to actually bring the project to completion.
He has shot a teaser without any funding, and is now looking for some serious funding to create a proper proof-of- concept trailer to pitch to interested Hollywood producers.
