In a world transformed by digitalization, the pandemic, and content creation and consumer markets in large countries like India and China, the Hollywood of old is no more. The emergence of top-quality storytelling, exceptional talent, and authentic Asian and Asian American representation from outside of centralized and established entertainment hubs has opened tremendous new opportunities for creators, producers, animators, and actors from almost anywhere. What does the growth of localized, but globally popular, content mean for large entertainment complexes like Hollywood? How has this changed the business of entertainment? How has the accessibility of digital platforms shaped content creation and storytelling, now that everyone can be seen?
