In a move shaking up the entertainment industry, Hollywood veterans Roseanne Barr, Mark Wahlberg, and Mel Gibson have joined forces to launch Freedom Studios, a film production company that pledges to produce content free from what they call the “woke agenda.” Their mission? To bring back traditional storytelling and challenge the mainstream narrative that they believe has dominated Hollywood for too long.
The announcement of Freedom Studios comes amid growing cultural debates over free speech, political correctness, and the perceived influence of progressive ideologies in film and television. According to its founders, the new studio will focus on creating entertaining, thought-provoking, and unapologetically bold films that appeal to a broad audience, rather than catering to ideological trends.

“Hollywood has lost its way,” Roseanne Barr stated at the studio’s launch event. “We’re here to tell real stories, the kind people actually want to see—without the fear of being canceled.”
Mark Wahlberg echoed similar sentiments: “We’re taking back storytelling for the everyday American who just wants a good movie, not a lecture.”
Mel Gibson, known for his controversial past as well as his successful career in filmmaking, emphasized that Freedom Studios is not about politics, but about artistic freedom: “We’re making movies that entertain, inspire, and challenge people, not push an agenda.”
The studio is already in production on several high-profile projects, including:
-
“1776 Reborn” – A historical epic about America’s founding, promising a raw, unapologetic portrayal of history.
-
“Heartland Stories” – A drama series centered around working-class American families facing real-world struggles.
-
“The Last Stand” – An action thriller following a group of veterans who fight back against government corruption.
The launch of Freedom Studios has sent shockwaves through Hollywood. Supporters praise the move as a much-needed alternative to the current film industry, where many feel traditional values and perspectives are often sidelined. Conservative commentators and media outlets have celebrated the new studio, calling it a win for free expression.
However, the backlash from Hollywood elites and progressive figures has been swift. Critics accuse Freedom Studios of embracing divisive rhetoric and catering to reactionary audiences. Some industry professionals have even called for boycotts, with influential figures in Hollywood labeling the move as an “attack on inclusivity.”
Freedom Studios has not shied away from calling out Hollywood figures they believe have contributed to what they describe as a “toxic culture of censorship and forced ideology.” While they haven’t listed specific names in official statements, insiders suggest that the studio aims to push back against leading progressive voices in the industry, including:
-
George Clooney – A vocal advocate for liberal policies and progressive causes.
-
Meryl Streep – Frequently outspoken on social justice issues.
-
Robert De Niro – Known for his relentless criticism of conservative politicians.
-
John Legend & Chrissy Teigen – Often seen as representatives of Hollywood’s activist elite.
-
Ava DuVernay – A filmmaker who has championed diversity and social change in storytelling.
Whether or not these individuals will respond to the challenge remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: Freedom Studios has ignited a cultural firestorm that is unlikely to die down anytime soon.
While the company is still in its early stages, industry analysts predict that Freedom Studios could become a major disruptor in Hollywood. With a built-in audience craving entertainment free from political overtones, the studio has the potential to tap into an underserved market.
As Roseanne Barr put it: “This isn’t just a film studio—it’s a movement.”
Will Freedom Studios succeed in reshaping Hollywood? Or will it face insurmountable resistance from the industry’s established powers? One thing is for sure: the battle for the future of entertainment has only just begun.
