UKBrand familiarity: Very good
-Brand is pretty well-known, and even more so among adults- About half overall have heard songs from ANNIE
- Girls most likely to be big fans
-Known for being family-friendly, classic
-Moms, girls, and (to a lesser extent) female generals are the target; males will be tough to convert
-The music, “fun factor”, and promise of a new take on ANNIE will be key selling points
JAPANBrand familiarity: Solid-to-good
- While not as quite high as the UK, decent familiarity and favorability
- Female generals likely the most gettable audience; girls and moms will need a bit more convincing
- An inspirational, more character-driven approach might work best here
FRANCEBrand familiarity: Weak
GERMANYBrand familiarity: Weak
-Limited profile-Most have no experience with the brand

ANNIE is a fairly well-known, female-skewing franchise in the UK.
Unsurprisingly, familiarity skews female
among both generals and kids.
General audiences tend to be most familiar with the franchise, but kids
show higher fanship and interest in a new film,
driven by girls.

Trailer Testing: Post Interest and Main Takeaways
- Encouraging scores among moms and girls (driven by younger girls 7-9)- Among general audiences, older females (25+) are also in a good place- Guys are largely un-gettable for this film; the musical genre is a main barrier- The “fun factor” and music drive interest- Annie is a popular character, and audiences look forward to seeing a fresh take

Compared to the UK, there’s less familiarity with ANNIE in France.
Familiarity and fanship of the ANNIE franchise is
limited in France. Girls are among the most
familiar with the property, but it’s
certainly not well-known, even among this
group.

Going hand-in-hand with low familiarity, top-box interest
in ANNIE is low in France among generals, kids, and
parents, even when the stars of the film are mentioned.
Looking at total positive interest, parents may be the most gettable audience for
this film.

Trailer Testing: Post Interest and Main Takeaways
- There’s some potential for ANNIE among general audiences in Japan; the trailer got a very good response among females- Moms and girls might be tricky: young girls may be mostly on board, but moms aren’t convinced their kids will like or understand the story- The inspirational story, a desire to root for Annie, and the music are top interest drivers
