As I indicated, you should develop articles in draft space unless you are very experienced in article creation. There are other problems.
- You need to provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines for films. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the production company, social media, IMDB and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the company claims or interviewing its management or stars. Your only reference was IMDB, which is not an independent third party-source, since it's written by the producers.
- Even if you had added genuinely impartial sources, I can't see how an unreleased film can meet the notability criteria linked above. Even if you think it might one day be a box office hit or Oscar winner, it's still too soon
- A one-line article for an unreleased film with no other factual content is bound to be seen as pre-release promotion.
- The image was a copyright violation. Film posters, unless they are very old, cannot be uploaded to Commons. That applies even to pages created by you or your organisation, unless they state clearly and explicitly that they are public domain. There are ways to donate copyrighted images to Wikipedia, as described here; please note that simply asserting on the talk page that you are the owner of the copyright, or you have permission to use the image, isn't sufficient. I note that the image has already been deleted from Commons. Copyrighted film posters can only be uploaded and used on en-wiki under a fair use rationale.
You are, of course, free to try again, but I can't see how you are going to meet the notability criteria, which you should read very carefully, so you might do better to wait until this film becomes the next big thing. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 05:36, 31 March 2017 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Expecting Mary, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Dan Gordon. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

I reverted an edit you made to D-Tox. You made too many unsourced changes to the article, including changing the film's country of production, without adding a citation for your changes. Please don't change content on Wikipedia citing a reliable source. Another thing, your edits remind of a blocked user, TroySchulz ( talk · contribs). Are you yet another sock of his?

- Nevermind. Going through your edits, it seems obvious. For example: diff #1 and diff #2. NinjaRobotPirate ( talk) 03:42, 7 April 2017 (UTC)

Hello, AkkadOfSargon. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Doug Walker (actor), for deletion because it's a biography of a living person that lacks references. If you don't want Doug Walker (actor) to be deleted, please add a reference to the article.
If you don't understand this message, you can leave a note on my talk page.
Thanks,
Welcome!
