Untitled Seth Rogen film

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

WP:TOOSOON article about an unreleased film. As always, Wikipedia does not keep an article about every film that can be minimally sourced as having entered the production pipeline -- with extremely rare exceptions for hypernotable films on the order of the Star Wars franchise, most films are not notable until they have been released, and thereby received reviews from reputable film critics, and a small bit of initial casting announcement coverage is not enough to make it a special case yet. Just because the director has a WP:BLP does not automatically mean we need to rush-job a premature article the moment he announces that he's working on something new — if you don't even know a title or anything about the plot yet, let alone an actual release date, then you need to wait until you do know those things before a standalone article becomes warranted.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Technically it should be Untitled Brandon Trost film... suggest redirect to Brandon Trost, we shouldn't delete where there is a valid alternative and it seems likely that this would only have to be recreated in the future. PC78 (talk) 11:20, 18 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete The thing is, if this film comes to be, it will get a title, so this will not be a useful search then, so this is not a permanently needed lead.John Pack Lambert (talk) 23:40, 22 February 2019 (UTC)

 * Keep though it is Too Soon right now, at the very least they’re in post-production and that’s good enough for me. This isn’t some casting notice. Trillfendi (talk) 21:52, 24 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Brandon Trost, or draftify. This will likely be ready for its own article soon enough. –  Broccoli  &#38; Coffee (Oh hai) 22:30, 24 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep beacuse it has ample enough sourcing and is in post production. It meets notability in my opinion. TheMovieGuy

 * Draftify - I like this idea, considering that there's some information on here worth saving for when this actually gets a correct article title. –eggofreasontalk 05:20, 4 March 2019 (UTC)


 * Redirect to Seth Rogen. A fair amount of work has gone into this article and it references sources, but it is WP:TOOSOON and people, let us not forget, this is an encyclopedia, not an internet movie database. Unoc (talk) 13:01, 6 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep Filming has commenced and concluded, and the article is clearly notable. -- / Alex /21  12:01, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep The film is well-referenced from reliable sources (such as The Hollywood Reporter) and passes NFilm as well with principal photography commenced (and also finished) and a highly notable cast. I do not see any policy that suggests that a film without an official title (that also meets these other requirements) should be deleted (or other option), but I'm very happy to be corrected on that point.

 * Keep - the film passes notability guidelines. Let's be honest the only reason this is being discussed is that it doesn't have a proper title, but that is not a reason to delete the article. As it passes NFF, it should remain - we'll get a title soon enough, and the page can be moved accordingly. The film features a notable cast now, and principal photography has started, so I don't see any advantage of deleting the page, and I don't see much point in draftifying it either.
