## Production

On January 24, 2022 Austin McConnell got bored of superheroes and decided as a joke to create his own cinematic universe made up of heroes no one wants or needs.

This idea would become highly popular with Austin's fans and they would begin mass producing fan material based off of his videos and sending it hoping for it to happen.

Austin would then become inspired by his fans and start thinking he could actually do something like this and would begin creating a script and 3D models for his characters.

On March 31, 2022 Austin would officially announce that he is working on an unofficial movie for Atlas to be posted on his channel and would set up a Patreon page so he could collect enough money to actually make this movie happen.

As of April 6, 2022 Austin collected enough money to make the movie along with enough movie for original music, an extended cut, and a post-credit scene featuring either Blue Bolt, Spider Queen, Cat-Man, Six-Gun Gorilla, or Little Red Riding Hood.

As of May 1, 2022 the kickstart for Atlas ended with over $51.809 with 1,108 people backing the project.

The movie has been confirmed rated PG-PG-13.

As of the post-credit scene vote Six-Gun Gorilla will be appearing in the scene along with being the next installment of the Bargain-Bin Cinematic Universe.

In Austin McConnell's update video on the Bargain-Bin Cinematic Universe he made several updates about the film one of which announcing that along with Six-Gun Gorilla appearing in the post-credit scene so will Bart Masters.

In the very same update video Austin stated he would be releasing a trailer before the film came and neither the trailer nor the movie have come out due to as Austin said "animation taking time"
