CREATOR'S MESSAGE AND CONTACT
I am David Marlett, the designer and creator of THE 15 LETTERS MAN. Thank you for considering being part of this exciting new project. Getting this labyrinthine series to this point (and this presentation) has been a labor of love—and weeks and weeks of research—and months of designing and crafting—and years of mulling. Thus, I'm proud to now present to you what I believe is an extraordinary story.
IMMEDIATELY ENGAGING
The concept underpinnings of THE 15 LETTERS MAN—the spooky similarities of the specifics surrounding the century-separated assassinations of Lincoln and Kennedy—are so widely familiar that the mere mention of them occurring yet again, exactly another century later, has consistently drawn the attention of audiences—just as it most likely drew you too. This immediate reaction of interest and curiosity gives this series an significant advantage in marketing, and is something the story itself is designed to fully exploit.
STORY ARCS AND ADDITIONAL INFO
I hope you'll not only read all four seasons of THE 15 LETTERS MAN (see tabs under the SERIES STORY at top of this page), but also explore the tabs under OTHER INFO and CHARACTERS too. Reading all four seasons is more important for this series bible than perhaps for most other series, because THE 15 LETTERS MAN is designed to unveil itself across all 52 hour-long-episodes, not wrap major arcs each season. In other words, neither the primary, secondary, or even the interwoven tertiary story lines fully arc within any one season—though there are some smaller arcs that do play out.
STORY IS COMPLEX BY DESIGN...AND YET...
The complexity of the continually crossing plotlines (in a relatable story with recognizable characters) is intentionally designed to reward both types of audiences—those who enjoy and appreciate an exceptional bit of mystery and puzzle with their challenging plot and will watch most of the episodes back-to-back—and those who may see only one episode of the action-packed thriller per week and/or otherwise want a good story that can be enjoyed without the deep dive.
DESIGNED FOR 2025 AUDIENCES, and beyond
THE 15 LETTERS MAN is built with the modern binging-series-watcher in mind—they are ready for and indeed expect a meaty tome, one that not only entertains but challenges them in their present day lives. All of the narratives within THE 15 LETTERS MAN story tie to current day issues and struggles, challenges and hopes. The larger scale ones include: scientific theory, privacy, separation of church and state, climate change, government corruption, institutionalized hegemony, organized religion, social engineering, global markets, xenophobia, Constitutional balance of powers, states' rights, and nationalism. On a personal scale, the series grapples with the weighty matters of courage, loyalty, family, destiny, guilt, honor, faith, fears, love, death, and certainly sacrifice.
