About

Taking the Next Big Step in My Journey 🚀 Hi, I’m Justus van Eijk, and I’m thrilled to share my next big step with you. At 18, I made the bold decision to take a gap year to fully commit to my biggest dream: writing, directing, and acting in my own TV series, Nova Pangea. Now, 1,5 years later, that decision is leading me somewhere incredible—New York City. From the moment I graduated high school, I knew I had to follow my creative passion. While many took the traditional path straight to university, I felt an undeniable pull to storytelling, filmmaking, and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible. What started as a short writing assignment in high school has now grown into a deeply personal and ambitious project that I believe has the potential to make a real impact. Over the past four years, I’ve dedicated myself to developing Nova Pangea—first as a book, then as a screenplay, and now as a fully realized vision for a TV series. I’ve written the pilot, I’m continuing to refine the episodes, and I’m working tirelessly to bring this story to life. This project isn’t just a dream—it’s my mission. Now, I’m taking the next step: spending two months in New York to network, pitch my series, and find the right people who can help me make Nova Pangea a reality. I know this won’t be easy, but I also know that hard work, persistence, and the right connections can turn ambitious ideas into reality. If you’re interested in storytelling, filmmaking, or simply believe in taking big leaps to chase your dreams, I’d love to connect! Whether you’re an industry professional, a fellow creative, or someone who believes in bold ideas, let’s talk.

Let’s make this journey unforgettable. See you soon, New York! 🎬✨ Best, Justus van Eijk
