Michael Foust recently sat down with Angel Studios' Vice President and Head of Theatrical Distribution Brandon Purdie to discuss the success of the studio's new film "Sound of Freedom."

The studio behind box office hits Sound of Freedom and His Only Son is transforming the industry with a movie-making model that flips the script on how films traditionally have been made, an executive at the studio says.

Brandon Purdie, vice president and head of theatrical distribution at Angel Studios, told Christian Headlines that Angel’s unique model is one of the secrets behind the company’s stunning success.

Sound of Freedom opened as the No. 1 movie in America and will pass $100 million gross in the coming days despite few in Hollywood giving it a chance to succeed. The studio’s first release this year, His Only Son, surprised movie observers by opening at No. 3 the weekend before Easter.

“The theater chains are incredibly excited” about Angel’s success, Purdie said.
