Edwin Resto is a Miami-based screenwriter, author, and creator known for blending high-concept storytelling, dark humor, and visual flair. His work explores the intersections of glamour, mystery, and emotion — across sci-fi, horror, noir, and fantasy.
He is the visionary behind the Fagatron Lives universe, a multi-platform saga spanning novels, musicals, animated series, and feature film adaptations. His animated noir pilot City PD was a quarterfinalist in the 2025 Final Draft Big Break Screenwriting Contest, and his horror slasher Gratuitous was a quarterfinalist in the 2025 Emerging Screenwriters Genre Competition.
His Fagatron Lives novel has been submitted to Book Pipeline, with the feature film adaptation now complete and in early circulation. He also writes and publishes Screenwriter Magazine, a stylized monthly digital magazine through FTRON Productions highlighting indie screenwriting, pitch strategy, and entertainment news.
With over 25 years of creative experience, Resto draws inspiration from pop culture, fashion, and identity, delivering bold narratives with cinematic ambition and emotional depth. Whether it’s a sci-fi epic, a campy slasher, or a glam-noir thriller, his work always aims to entertain — and disrupt.
Currently seeking collaborators, producers, and representation to help bring his original universe to screen. Let’s make something unforgettable.
