\n\tEXCLUSIVE: The next big YouTube-born horror IP for the big screen we told you about<\/a>, the Mandela Catalogue from the Scott Stuber-led United Artists<\/a>, Amazon MGM Studios and Steven Spielberg<\/a>\u2018s Amblin, is getting a summer release date of June 9, 2028. As Deadline reported, Mandela Catalogue\u00a0creator Alex Kister is directing the feature off a screenplay he adapted with Tyler Clifton.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe trio of studios beat 11 other bids for films rights to the popular YouTube horror series, which has closed over 100 million views across its official episodes alone, making it one of the largest original analog horror franchises on the streaming portal. The property is regarded as one of the defining titles in the analog horror genre, alongside\u00a0Local 58\u00a0and\u00a0The Backrooms.<\/p>\n

\n\tLaunched in 2021,\u00a0Mandela Catalogue\u00a0is set in the fictional Mandela County, WI, which is invaded by shape-shifting, nearly immortal creatures called Alternates.<\/p>\n

\n\tSpielberg and Holly Bario are producing for Amblin Entertainment alongside Aaron B. Koontz for Paper Street Pictures and Stuber and Nick Nesbitt for United Artists. Kister and Clifton are also producing. Annie McCreery will oversee the project for United Artists. Maria Fortese will oversee for Amblin.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe only other title on June 9, 2028 so far is an untitled Universal event movie.<\/p>\n
