Due to globalization and industry dynamics, transnational cinema became more pronounced after the 1980s. International co-productions are common, as films are complex products requiring financial resources, advanced technology, and talent. This study examines international co-productions that secured U.S. theatrical release between 2000 and 2019, identifying common patterns and trends. The results indicate that adding more partners does not guarantee higher financial resources. Co-productions that achieve U.S. distribution frequently involve country pairs such as U.S.–UK, U.S.–France, and France–Belgium. Genre analysis shows that drama, comedy, action, romance, and crime are the most frequent categories among these films. At the continental level, North America dominates action, adventure, and sci-fi; Europe leads in documentary, war, and history, while Asia is active in animation and sci-fi in international co-productions.
