Sony Pictures Movies On Netflix In 2022: Since the coronavirus outbreak has been carrying forward its tyrannical reign, as theaters all over the world have been mostly closed, filmaholics are mostly relied upon streaming services to watch a movie. Although on one hand, it’s unfortunate that the big screen adaptations are not being watched the way it is meant to be watched, on the other hand streaming media have made it possible for viewers to turn to a movie whenever they want. And the vast range of movies available literally always from literally every genre has turned the process of watching movies a lot easier.
To state an instant of how popular the streaming media have recently been and how rapidly they are growing the recent deal between Sony Pictures and Netflix should definitely be mentioned.
The five-year deal secures that all of Sony’s theatrical releases will be available exclusively on Netflix among which fall the upcoming spiderman movie ‘Spider-man: Into the Spider-Verse‘, Marvel movie ‘Morbius’, and video game adaptation ‘Uncharted’. The distribution deal with Netflix will only be effective after Sony’s current deal with Starz expires. With Starz, Sony had been streaming most of their movies for a long time.
Also, this deal is only for movies coming in 2022 and beyond. That is to say, ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ and ‘A Journal for Jordan’ will be excluded from the list. Also, ‘Hotel Transylvania: Transformania’ though is scheduled to release in January of 2022, will be skipped by Netflix as it has recently been sold to Amazon Studios.
