Los Angeles-based Fruition Production has officially announced the November release of a new documentary titled “XRP Unleashed.” The studio disclosed plans for self-distribution through a detailed post on Via X, emphasizing a strategic pivot away from traditional Hollywood channels which have shown dwindling interest in backing unaffiliated new entrants. The documentary will be made available on platforms such as Apple TV and Amazon.
“We are excited to announce that we are targeting the release of XRP unleashed for this November! We’ve taken matters into our own hands and are pursuing self distribution. This means the documentary will be available on a few platforms like Apple TV and Amazon without their support,” Fruition Production revealed.
What XRP Unleashed Will Show
In a post on X, Fruition Production further elaborated on the distribution decision: “In an era where Hollywood is grappling with substantial shifts and reduced enthusiasm for experimental content from new creators, self-distribution allows us to maintain creative control and reach our audience directly without the need for establishment endorsements.”
Ripple CTO David Schwartz will have one of the most high-profile appearances in the documentary. Notably, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse and other top-level executives won’t appear in the documentary: “Brad and his executive team are not willing to appear although we did interview David [Schwartz]. When you see the scope of what we’re covering, I actually don’t blame them at all. Resistance in the form of requiring lots of story compromises, and then arbitrary celebrity.”
The documentary’s independence from platforms like Netflix was highlighted following community speculation about potential partnerships. Fruition clarified, “There was never an official partnership with Netflix. Collaborating with such platforms often entails significant creative compromises and involves numerous intermediaries that could dilute the documentary’s message.”
“XRP Unleashed” seeks to dissect the legal battle of Ripple Labs with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), a saga that just came to an end with the remedies ruling on August 7. The film promises to deliver an in-depth analysis through interviews with prominent figures involved in the cse, including influencers, financial analysts, legal experts, and Ripple’s internal team.
It will cover the confrontation with the SEC aiming to establish a clear legal framework for XRP, the impact this could have on international banking and financial services, the technological underpinnings of XRP and its potential applications in areas like asset tokenization and central bank digital currencies (CBDCs).
Responding to an online discourse surrounding the documentary, Fruition Production clarified a lot of questions. The studio confirmed plans to release a new trailer a couple of weeks before the premiere, intended to offer a sneak peek into the rigorous research and groundbreaking revelations the film promises to deliver.
The documentary’s pricing and distribution model were also topics of community interest, with Fruition noting, “Initially, the documentary will be available for rent. We are exploring moving to an ad-supported platform in future years to ensure broader accessibility.”
Concerning potential release timing aligned with market movements of XRP, the studio commented, “Aligning our release with a peak in XRP’s market price could amplify the documentary’s impact and benefit the community, though such timing can be coincidental.”
At press time, XRP traded at $0.5969.
