Marcel Cornelius stood in the dust of a small set in Augsburg with a borrowed spotlight, shooting his fan film Indiana Jones - The Spear of Destiny. It was more than an experiment: it was a promise that adventure begins where passion outgrows the budget. The premiere felt like a door flung open to a world of stories still waiting to be told.

Today, Marcel returns to that origin with Shadows of Atlantis. Once again the heart beats in Augsburg; once again the path runs from notebook sketches to living characters and a story that puts courage, doubt, and friendship at its center. What was a spark then is now a steady fire the same curiosity, the same respect for the myth, only larger, more mature, closer to people.
Shadows of Atlantis is the continuation of a dream that began years ago and now shines brighter than ever.

Behind the Scenes

Shadows of Atlantis is produced with a hybrid workflow that blends practical sets, greenscreen stages, and virtual production. Each approach is selected scene‑by‑scene to serve performance, pacing, and a cohesive visual style. Throughout, we uphold the highest standards of costume craftsmanship and screen‑accurate detail so the wardrobe reads as authentically as the world around it
