UCLA Study: Streaming Diversity Declines, Despite Audience Demand
Update: 2025-12-16
Description
UCLAs Hollywood Diversity Report reveals a troubling decline in cultural diversity across popular streaming shows. Despite initial post-George Floyd initiatives, nearly four-fifths of lead characters and almost four out of five lead roles went to white men. Only forty-nine out of two hundred and twenty-two series had a female creator. Studios like Disney, Amazon, Paramount, and Warner Brothers dismantled diversity programs. However, shows with diverse storytelling still received higher ratings, indicating audience demand for a broader range of stories.
