Co-founded by Brad Pitt, Plan B operates as a highly successful, actor-driven production banner.

The industry is undergoing rapid consolidation. High production costs are forcing studios to rely heavily on established intellectual property. At the same time, international production hubs in South Korea, India, and Nigeria are challenging Western dominance. Audiences now demand a blend of familiar nostalgia and fresh, diverse global perspectives.

While major studios control the blockbusters, specialized independent production companies dictate critical trends and dominate award seasons.
