As the oldest surviving film studio in the United States, Universal has a history of resilience. Known historically for its classic monster movies (Dracula, Frankenstein), the studio has pivoted brilliantly in the modern era. The Fast & Furious franchise became a global phenomenon, proving that diverse casting and high-octane action transcend language barriers. Furthermore, their partnership with Amblin Entertainment (Steven Spielberg’s company) ensures a steady stream of high-quality productions ranging from Jurassic World to intimate dramas.
