Audiences depend on the genre of the film. The type of genre attracts the audience, according to Spider-Man: Far From Home, it ranked 18th place in superhero movies. Most action and adventure movies are pg-13 leading to the target audience being anywhere from kids to elders. Attracting these audiences also applies through cross promoting.

Many movies have sequels and sometimes even more. Jurassic park has a 3-movieseries while Jurassic world has a 2-movie series. Many people when the first Jurassic world came out people were excited since it had been years since they did publish a new one.
