Angel Studios Sets Limits on Sex, Nudity and Language in Its Originals
Angel Studios has announced new content rules for its original films and TV series.
The faith-friendly studio, known for “Sound of Freedom,” is based in the United States.
Its pledge rules out on-screen sex, nudity and F-words, and says originals will not misuse God’s name.
The policy also bars profanity in titles submitted for children aged 12 and under.
