The new normal in Hollywood can be 25 % less than TV programs

- Ampere expects to spend entertainment content from the main players in 2025.
- The banners convert some spending on sports content.
The slowdown in Hollywood production may be the new natural.
Many people who are aware of the 2024 entertainment began in the hope that it would recover production levels after the 2023 labor strikes and correct the wide industry in 2022.
Now, the first full year since the end of the strikes. So, where is the industry? New data from the UK -based trackers shows its headquarters, the orders of the first -run text TV series in 2024, a 25 % decrease from 2022, when 3,108 shows were requested at the level of industry at the peak of Peak TV. Amir said that the decline was almost consistent with geographical areas and companies.
What’s more, Ampre expects the expenses of entertainment content by the best expenditures in this field to be mainly flat. Amir estimated that the overall spending of entertainment content, with the exception of sports, by the six major media companies – Netflix, Amazon, Apple, Apple, Paramount, Warner Bros. Discovery – will be flat at $ 98 billion in 2025, with a large growth of Netflix and Amazon. Netflix, for example, revealed that it would increase its content bill to $ 18 billion in 2025, up from $ 17 billion last year.
“The industry has realized that it could live on 75 % of the peak,” said Amebir’s CEO. “In 2024, everyone set out to the level of the strike year.”
Production Tracking Production Similarly found that television production decreased around 20 % in 2024 compared to 2022 of the year. The company tracks global production by major companies in the United States.
The CEO of PRODPRO LOPERDE said that 2024 showed a strong improvement in 2023, but was still low from the TV height. He added that the year 2024 referred to a new basis line as networks and plays adapt to more strict budgets.
The six main signs are also spent more on sports, which can attract large fans and advertising dollars. Amir estimated that spending on live sports by these signs would reach 28 billion dollars in 2025, with 28 % of 2022.
WBD called an inaccurate Ampre data without sharing details. “Spending on Warner Bros. Discovery is still strong through movies, television, news, sports and broadcasting, as the company has spent more this year than the past, and this trend is expected to continue in the coming years.”
Ampre also expects Ampre to rely on Netflix, Amazon and Disney more on licensed content over time compared to original assets. The company said in the “Participation Report” issued in January 2024 in January 2024.
Crime and drama are the most popular types
On TV, Ampre found that the crime was the most popular type, representing 25 % of the textual committees by the six main six years last year. It was followed by the drama (19 %) and romance (17 %). The orders of the comedy and movement increased more than others – each increased by about 60 % on an annual basis – while the chain of children decreased more than 45 %.
The transformation of the mandate abroad continued in 2024. Amir said that for the second year in a row, he ordered the six main signs of the first series of first place in Western Europe more than North America. Asia showed its increasing importance, as North America exceeded orders in 2024.
Los Angeles also lost some land as a center for TV and films. Filmla, which issues Los Angeles permits, stated that filming days 5.6 % decreased yearly in 2024To the lowest level I recorded outside 2020 when the epidemic stopped production.
Huge recovery hopes fade out
Prodopro said that the signs of watermelon in 2024 began to appear in the middle of the year. It was a particularly difficult year for celebrity production companies that raised money in large reviews.
In this industry, the broad belief that the products were parked in anticipation of a possible third blow – this time by the crews – that were eventually avoided. Many in Hollywood clung to the Mantra “alive until 25”, hoping that production will bounce this year.
Ampere does not think this will be the case, as the current production level describes as the new natural.
Lovede of ProdPro looked more optimistic.
“With health financial foundations, we expect to re -invest broadcast platforms in content, and lay the foundation for steady growth in 2025 and beyond.”
