Target audiences

The target audience of a thriller can vary depending on the genre however I would say anyone from 16 or maybe even 18 due to the heavy plot line. I think male adults are the most targeted audience for crime or action thrillers because of the all the action, however females are also catered for because the main chracter in a thriller is usually an a-list Hollywood actor i.e Denzel Washington, Daniel Craig, Matt Damon. Horror thrillers could be for any gender as there is usually a young mixed gender cast which is also suitable for older teens.
