Angel Studios is setting permanent content standards meant to protect its family-friendly mission for generations, co-founder and chief content officer Jeff Harmon told The Christian Post.

"We're trying to build a 100-year-plus company," Harmon said. "How do we make sure that in 50 years to 100 years this thing doesn't just go off the rails and become Hollywood rather than blazing its own path?"

The "Angel Promise" has three commitments: final approval over films and TV series for the roughly 3 million Angel Guild members, who must give a project a score of at least 70 out of 100; a ban on nudity, sex scenes and profanity; and expanded parental controls so families can make informed viewing decisions.

Key points

  • Guild of ~3M members gets final approval
  • Projects need a 70/100 Guild score
  • Nudity, sex scenes and profanity banned
