Julia Boorstin, Jeffrey Hirsch, Gale Anne Hurd, Charles D. King, Asif Satchu, Jeremy Zimmer, Jeff Hirsch
Industry leaders project a fragmented streaming landscape where major consolidators like Netflix and Disney+ coexist with premium add-on services, driven by a shift in creator leverage toward aggressive upfront deals over traditional backend participation. While writers face income compression due to shortened production cycles and structural residual gaps, the market is simultaneously evolving toward data-driven meritocracy that could reinstitute performance-based royalties. This evolution extends globally, with content featuring underrepresented demographics and non-U.S. productions becoming central to international revenue growth alongside a compressed theatrical window strategy.
