THE LIFE OF THE SPIDER-MAN

THE LIFE OF THE SPIDER-MAN
By Amirreza Mahdiyan

GENRE: Thriller, Drama
LOGLINE:

A burned-out Peter Parker is forced to confront the emotional cost of heroism that shatters his faith, dragging him through guilt, spiritual collapse, and a horrifying psychological breakdown, until a final confrontation forces him to either reclaim the mask or abandon it forever.

SYNOPSIS:

"The Life of the Spider-Man" is a grounded, character-driven reimagining of Peter Parker’s world, where the true weight of responsibility threatens to consume him. After failures both as Peter Parker and Spider-Man, Peter spirals into guilt, confronting the spiritual, psychological, and emotional cost of wearing the mask. As his personal relationships unravel and his sense of self fractures, a returning criminal with nothing left to lose forces Peter to choose: continue breaking himself to save others, or walk away from Spider-Man forever. A dark, poetic, and emotionally raw take on the world’s most beloved hero.

Not a bad attempt at a logline, Amirreza. But I would urge you to be more specific with the details. Give us a greater understanding of who your lead (presumably Peter) is up against and what he stands to lose, i.e. the stakes of the piece.
