Southeast Asia on the Silver Screen, Superhero Fatigue & Multi-streaming
Are we seeking more realistic and complex narratives from the too simplistic storylines of superhero blockbusters? Even as Hollywood’s pull remains, the entertainment landscape is evolving with an increased global appetite for non-English content from different regions. Join Natacia Lim, WGSN’s Consumer Researcher, and WGSN CEO Carla Buzasi in this episode of Lives of Tomorrow on Southeast Asian film and TV, as well as superhero fatigue and the rise in multistreaming platforms. We look at how current trends are shaping the entertainment industry and why there is a surge in younger people going to the cinema. We reflect on franchise films, box office numbers, and what the future of the franchise is.
