This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of films). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Comment: This draft or article is about an unreleased film. The film notability guideline identifies three stages in the production cycle for films:
*1. Planned films that have not begun production (principal photography or animation). These planned films do not satisfy film notability.
*2. Films that are confirmed by reliable sources to have begun production, but have not been released. These films are only notable if production itself satisfies general notability in terms of significant coverage. Mere mention of the start of production does not satisfy notability.
*3. Films that have been released, whose notability is determined by reception and reviews, or a major notable award for excellence in some aspect of filmmaking.
This film draft must, at this time, be evaluated based on general notability of production.
The best practice with regard to unreleased films is usually to wait until the film is released, and then update the draft to include review information, and resubmit when the film is released and reviewed. Robert McClenon (talk) 01:12, 10 February 2025 (UTC)
