THE WORLDWIDE GUIDE · LIKE® FILM
FILM
The studios that make the world's films — who owns them, who runs them, what they make, and where their lots stand. LIKE® Film opens its worldwide coverage with the studios themselves, verified name by name in the month two of the great Hollywood majors passed under one roof.
THE GUIDE
THE WORLDWIDE GUIDE · OCTOBER 2026
THE WORLD'S FILM STUDIOS
30 studios — from Disney, Warner Bros. and Universal to A24, StudioCanal, Toho and Studio Ghibli — with every studio's parent as it stands after the 6 October 2026 Skydance closing, its chairman and film chief verified to October 2026, its lot, its labels and franchises, and its published scale where one exists. The vacant Netflix film chair is printed as vacant; the gaps are named, never padded.
THE WORLDWIDE GUIDE · OCTOBER 2026
THE WORLD'S COMIC CONVENTIONS
27 conventions in 14 countries — San Diego and New York, Lucca and Angoulême, Comiket and CCXP — each with its organising body, its leadership where published, and its attendance stated with its year and its basis: unique attendees, tickets sold or turnstile, never blended. Five conventions publish no usable figure and say so; Angoulême's cancelled 2026 edition is told as the sequence it was.
