Born in London in 1970, Alex Garland has gained a solid place for himself over the years as one of the most original voices of British cinema and literature. Garland, who started her career as a novelist, attracted great attention as a young writer with her novel "The Beach", published in 1996. However, his real transformation took place in the world of cinema, and this transition made him a permanent name in the eyes of both critics and the masses. The first big turning point in his cinema adventure came when he wrote the script of 28 Days Later, directed by Danny Boyle. This 2002 film went down in cinema history as a work that radically redefined the zombie genre. The film, which was shot with a low budget and differed from the usual production approach of the period with its digital appearance, achieved great success both commercially and critically. After this film, Garland continued to work with important directors of the period and strengthened her identity as a screenwriter. He made his real breakthrough with the productions in which he directed. Ex Machina, produced in 2015, attracted great attention from festivals and left a deep impression on the audience with its original visual language and tight scenario, which deals with the theme of artificial intelligence with a philosophical depth. Annihilation, which was released in 2018, was a production that pushed the boundaries, again in the science fiction genre, but in a much more depressing and surrealist atmosphere. Both films became concrete examples of Garland's unique narrative language based on human nature, consciousness and identity. Civil War, which was released in 2024, was remarkable in that it focused on a different field. Set in a dystopian future where America has been dragged into civil conflict, this film attracted wide attention with its harsh and disturbing structure that blends political tension with documentary aesthetics. Then, in 2025, he returned to the 28 Days Later universe and implemented the 28 Years Later project; The sequel of this project is also planned for 2026. Garland is one of those rare creators who manages to bring philosophical weight and human concern to every story he tells, regardless of genre. His constant experimentation with form and content, both as a writer and director, continues to keep him as one of the most intriguing names in contemporary British cinema.
