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 page must be evaluated based on general notability of production.
