The Streaming Service

A real home for original stories — and the artists who tell them.

Indie Planet launches Spring 2027. Built by working filmmakers, curated by a committee, and shaped by the artists you already trust.

Indie Planet
The streaming service — launching Spring 2027

The most artist-driven streaming service in the world.

Indie Planet isn't trying to be the next Netflix. It's a town square for people who like their stories original — and a real home for the artists who tell them. Built by filmmakers who lived through the broken parts of distribution, and decided to fix them.

Curated by a committee, not an algorithm

Every title is chosen by a properly represented panel of filmmakers and artists — not a single buyer chasing trends. Quality first. Always.

Artist endorsements you can trust

Oscar, Golden Globe, BAFTA and Genie-winning artists recommend the films they love. Look for the endorsement icon on the poster — or search 'John's Picks' to follow the artists you trust.

Bootcamps & Masterclasses

Plain-spoken classes from working writers, directors and actors — included with your subscription. No fluff, real tools, in multiple languages. Built with our partner UDmand.

Global from day one

Stories in French, Mandarin, German and beyond. Active programs to develop filmmakers in Africa and South America. LGBT+, African American, Hispanic and Asian voices front and centre.

The old is also new

Silents, lost gems, restored classics, and the smaller films that built the world's film industries — alongside our Originals. The librarian who points you to the good shelf in the back.

Originals & Festivals

Indie Planet Originals begin in mid-2027 — features and series greenlit by artists, for artists. Plus year-round festival programs designed to make sure no voice is left behind.

The United Artists approach, for 2027

"When Chaplin, Pickford, Fairbanks and Griffith founded United Artists, the creatives took back control. It's time to do that again — and this time, make it stick."

Indie Planet is owned and steered by working filmmakers. The funding platform you're on right now is the front door. The streaming service is the home everything lives in — originals, classics, festivals, masterclasses, and the films our community helped fund.

Be first in line when we open the doors.

We'll let you know when subscriptions open, when Originals are announced, and when masterclasses go live.

No spam. We email when a new film launches — usually once or twice a month.
