Fails WP:NFILM and WP:NFF. The film may have been completed if it has an upcoming release, but NFF states: Additionally, films that have already begun shooting, but have not yet been publicly released (theatres or video), should generally not have their own articles unless the production itself is notable per the notability guidelines. If going straight to VOD, this seems like a film that has serious potential of not getting reviews to meet WP:NFO, and as it stands it does not meet the "production is notable" aspect of NFF. We only know that filming obviously took place at some point, but the only information is provided by Facebook, which doesn't meet WP:RS. Not opposed to draftifying per WP:ATD-I in case reviews actually do come. -2pou (talk) 17:56, 18 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Draftify until release. --- E.UX 12:06, 20 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Draftify. Release to VOD is imminent enough that there may possibly (but not at all definitely) be better reliable source coverage on the other side of October 7, but the film isn't already notable today if you have to rely on a Facebook post, self-published by a company directly involved in the production, just to get to three footnotes.

Draftify is a valid option as said in my nom, just putting it in bold to make it clear. -2pou (talk) 14:18, 25 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Drafitify until its release and if the article is on mainspace and if there's reviews about it along with reliable sources about it then it could be kept. Unilandofma^Talk 17:46, 25 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
