Working Title films, owned by Universal Studios, needs its British films to appeal to American audiences to be successful. This means using British stereotypes familiar to Americans and potentially including famous American actors. Showing Britain as the British see it would only succeed in the UK, while appealing to stereotypes could bring transatlantic box office success and larger profits from America's bigger population. The film "The World's End" was a hit in both the UK and USA through its use of recognizable British landmarks that helped American audiences grasp it was a British movie.
