Default value is not stored in model

class Movie(models.Model):
    image = models.ImageField(default='default.jpg')
    title = models.CharField(max_length=255)
    release_year = models.IntegerField()
    number_in_stock = models.IntegerField()
    daily_rate = models.FloatField()
    genre = models.CharField(max_length=255)
    date_created = models.DateTimeField(default=timezone.now)

    def __str__(self):


    return self.title

Admin interface

The above code is my models class and i have given a default value to the ImageField .

After saving the data my image field is still empty. Whats the prooblem ?

Adding on to this answer, the Media URL/Root and Static URL/Root collectively help Django process images for your application.

When you add the default image in models.py, make sure to put '/static/image.jpg' and once you're rending in the template load static with {% load static %}.

Have you added this in your setting.py :

STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATICFILES_DIRS=[
    os.path.join(BASE_DIR,'static')
]

Also, you will have to add the image in the static folder in your project for it work properly.
