Neon to produce open-source SCP movie after A24 controversy

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Neon has announced plans to produce an open-source movie based on the SCP Foundation's collaborative horror fiction, set for a 2027 release. This approach contrasts with A24's recent controversy, where their SCP-based film, "BACKROOMS," faced criticism for not adhering to the SCP Wiki's licensing requirements. Neon has committed to releasing their film under the Creative Commons ShareAlike license, fostering collaboration with the SCP community and emerging filmmakers. AI
