Entertainment companies have shifted their focus from relying solely on ticket sales to generating revenue through merchandise. With declining DVD sales and box office collections stalling, studios like Disney's Marvel Cinematic Universe are turning to merchandise as an alternative revenue stream. Movies, such as The Mandalorian, have even generated more revenue from licensed merchandise sales than box office collections. The Star Wars franchise alone is estimated to generate USD20 billion in toy sales annually. For instance, Disney's Eternals generated approximately USD300 million in box office sales but could potentially generate up to USD350 million in merchandise sales in 2021. The success of a movie is no longer determined solely by box office numbers or critical acclaim. Characters like Minions from Despicable Me have gained significant attention, often overshadowing the protagonist. This trend is expected to continue, with entertainment companies capitalizing on merchandise sales during the forecast period. 

The TV and movie merchandise market is booming, with trends including toys, apparel, collectibles, comic books, action figures, artwork, home décor, accessories, video games, and more.
