LOGLINE
When a disgraced archaeologist uncovers evidence that Earth’s ancient pyramids were part of a forgotten global energy network built by a non-human intelligence, he and a skeptical anthropologist are pulled into a shadow war between governments, academic institutions, and forces that have been waiting thousands of years to awaken.
THE SERIES
WHAT THINGS WILL COME is a slow-burn sci-fi mystery that reframes humanity’s oldest myths as misunderstood technology. As dormant structures across the planet begin to reactivate, the series explores how belief systems are born, how truth is buried, and whether humanity is prepared to confront its place in a much older design.
Each season peels back another layer of the past—revealing that what ancient civilizations worshipped was not divine, but powerful… and returning.
