## A24 upsets the SCP community
A24 announced it was making an SCP Foundation film but did not contact the SCP Wiki team or commit to releasing it under a Creative Commons license as required.
## Neon seizes the opportunity
Neon announced its own SCP Foundation movie and proactively reached out to the SCP Wiki team, pledging to release it under the Creative Commons ShareAlike license.
## Not an official project
Neon's film is not official. The wiki's staff is not involved in writing or production, receives no compensation, and does not endorse such projects.
## Theatrical release planned for 2027
Neon says the film will be released theatrically in twenty twenty-seven, suggesting a quick turnaround and potentially low-budget production given the challenges of profiting under a ShareAlike license.
## Wiki team praises Neon's approach
The SCP Foundation Wiki admin team said they appreciate Neon's excellent communication and commitment to following the license requirements and the spirit of collaboration.

> The staff of the SCP Foundation Wiki and our community appreciate NEON's excellent communication and commitment to following the requirements of our license as well as the spirit of collaboration at the core of the SCP Foundation project.
## Key takeaway

Neon is making an SCP Foundation film under Creative Commons license after A24 failed to secure rights or contact the SCP Wiki team.
