In a separate survey of Hollywood executives, more than eight in ten respondents agreed that increasing on-screen API representation in US-produced content could result in higher spending by API households on film and television. As noted earlier, API actors account for about 3 percent of both lead and supporting roles in films produced in the United States—roughly half the level of API representation in the US population. During the 2018–22 period, about 280 films had at least one API lead, and just over half of those were API race-agnostic. The percentage of API race-agnostic films was even greater when considering only the films with a wide theatrical release (more than 600 theaters).
