Action/sci-fi is my chosen genre as based on the research above it appears that currently this is one of the most popular genres.

This genre has a very wide target audience for example franchises such as star wars which are loved internationally by people from different backgrounds genders and ages however typically this genre appeals slightly more to the male demographic with research showing the percentage of males who viewed rogue one,the force awakens and the last Jedi in the first 2 weeks beings slightly higher than female viewers.
