Some of the most famous actresses came out of their studios, which shows how big their company is, people like Marilyn Monroe.

The Art Deco logo was designed by a landscape artist Emil Kosa, Jr. Over the years it has been modified several times.

20th Century Fox seem to produce a range of genre's because they can afford to have a big audience of people without losing money on the films they make. Below there is a list of all the films they have made this year and the prices and tickets sold for each one. It shows below that more of the horror/thriller films were watched in cinemas. This could be because people gain a better atompshere in the cinema watching those films, with the suspense and tension. This shows that 20th Century Fox would be a good company to use when making our horror film because they seem to get the most tickets sold and make the most money out of them.
