HOLLYWOOD, Calif. - Californer -- Phoenix Studios 1532 Announces Electrifying Animated Sci-Fi Adventure, "TIME WASTED," Landing May 2027
NASHVILLE– [JAN 2026] – Phoenix Studios 1532, a rising force in independent animation, today unveiled the highly anticipated release of its groundbreaking animated feature, TIME WASTED. Set to captivate audiences worldwide in May 2027, the film will be available across leading digital platforms including Strimm, Vimeo, YouTube, and YouTube TV.

It's a poignant and adrenaline-fueled journey about finding purpose when everything you knew is gone, and the unexpected power of nostalgia in a world that's moved on.
