Sony Has A Misguided Plan To Turn Box Office Flops Into Streaming Hits
Update: 2025-11-03
Description
Sony Pictures is challenging the traditional movie-making revenue model by proposing new fees with streaming giants like Netflix, based on streaming views rather than box office earnings. This comes after noticing that some of their theatrical flops, like Madame Web, became popular on Netflix. However, this proposal is controversial, as other studios and Sony insiders prefer box office results for pricing deals. Streaming platforms are cautious, as higher fees for box office flops could complicate future negotiations. The future of Hollywood hangs in the balance as Sony's streaming value gamble unfolds.
