Neon sticks it to A24 by announcing a Creative Commons SCP Foundation movie
Neon has announced it is producing an SCP Foundation movie that will be released in theaters in 2027. The studio proactively contacted the SCP Wiki team and pledged to release the film under a Creative Commons ShareAlike license. This move contrasts with A24's earlier announcement, which drew criticism for failing to meet the project's licensing requirements.
