Neal Harmon, Co-Founder & CEO of Angel Studios, joins Remy Blaire as the company makes its public debut at the New York Stock Exchange. Angel Studios, an independent film distribution studio known for its Christian-themed films and series, is valued at $1.6 billion and has reported an impressive 500% year-over-year revenue increase, reaching over $46.8 million in Q2 2025. With a global community of 1.5 million members across 180 countries, Angel Studios is pioneering a new approach to filmmaking by allowing families to decide which stories get told.
The conversation begins on a somber note as Neil reflects on the recent loss of a close friend, Charlie, who played a significant role in supporting Angel Studios. He expresses the need for stories that unite people and bring light to the world, especially during challenging times. Neil emphasizes that the mission of Angel Studios is to amplify values-driven narratives that resonate with families.
Remy and Neil discuss the concept of “light” in storytelling, contrasting the accolades given to mainstream films with the desire of many families for uplifting content. Neil explains how Angel Studios is flipping the script by engaging its audience in the decision-making process, ensuring that the stories produced align with the values of their community.
