Triton City Entertainment has big plans for their Dawn of the Paladin, set to be a four-film franchise with Chris Collins (“The Wire,” John Wick: Chapter 3) co-writing the first film.
Deadline reports this week, “The story centers around a small group of peacekeepers paid to protect a remote three-planet colony.”
“A new wave of crime has hit the colony. Unusually violent and organized, the leader is a mysterious warlord from a distant planet. His name is Mogul. The criminal organization is called the “Shune” which translates as “All Powerful.” They brought with them advanced weapon technology which creates a challenge for Lena, the Paladin lead science officer. The Paladin are under great pressure from the colony to bring Mogul and The Shune to justice.”
“Some of my favorite scripts I’ve written were for Star Wars: The Clone Wars which allowed me to tap a different part of my imagination,” said Collins. “Dawn of the Paladin presented the same opportunity and has all the raw materials to build a franchise. It’s a sci-fi saga for the next generation.”
