On film: Industry revenue is forecast to grow in 2023-24, on the back of successful movie releases

The performance of the industry depends on the popularity of film releases in a given year, the number of releases, DVD and Blu-ray sales, and demand from domestic and international TV broadcasters and VOD platforms. The success of a number of film releases and rising demand from video-on-demand (VOD) platforms has supported the industry. This industry consists of firms that distribute films to cinemas, TV networks and other exhibitors.

It also includes companies that acquire distribution rights and distribute DVDs to retailers and wholesalers, but excludes the reproduction and sale of film, videos and DVDs from master copies. Broadcast syndication, which is the licensing of TV programmes to external broadcasters, is also included. This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
