Alex Hollister is a screenwriter born and based in Bristol, UK. From an early age, he was obsessed with movies, video games and comic books, in particular the work being produced by American creator-owned comic book publisher Image Comics. Most of his childhood was spent watching movies, writing short stories and creating comic books, all of which perfectly coalesced when in 1995, having just watched Pixar's Toy Story, he discovered a relatively new medium to channel his love for writing, animation and comic books.
This newfound obsession would lead to studies in Illustration and Animation, focusing on computer animation, at Southampton University graduating in 2001 with a BA Hons. It was a few years later, while plotting out the story for a feature length personal animation project, that he caught the screenwriting bug. Four years later, in 2009, his second script "Shotgun Cinderella" silvered the action category of Page International Screenwriting Awards. That same script a year later landed on Tracking Board's Hit List spec scripts of the year for 2010.
Since then, he has worked with a number U.S. based producers on various projects adapting everything from Steam video games, best-selling spy novels to comic book IP, including DC comics and, coming full circle, a property from an imprint of Image Comics.
