Netflix and Sony have inked a multi-year deal that will keep their streaming partnership strong. As part of this agreement, Sony's movies will continue to stream on Netflix after they exit theaters and become available on VOD. This means fans can expect to see popular films like "Spider-Man: Brand New Day," "Beyond the Spider-Verse," and "The Legend of Zelda" streaming on Netflix.
In addition to film releases, Netflix has also secured licensing rights to select Sony-owned feature film and television titles. While details are still scarce, it's possible that some Sony properties could become permanent fixtures on the platform, similar to the recent success of K-Pop Demon Hunters.
According to sources, the deal is reportedly worth over $7 billion, more than double the $2.5 billion agreement reached by Netflix for domestic rights in 2021. Executives from both companies say the partnership has been a win-win, with Sony's films receiving significant attention on the streaming service. For example, Paul Littmann, Sony's executive VP, highlighted the increased visibility of films like "Uncharted" and "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse."
With this deal in place, Netflix is solidifying its position as a major player in the film industry. However, it raises questions about whether the company can create its own critically acclaimed content that stands alongside those it licenses from other studios.

! It's like, total win-win for both Netflix and Sony 
. I mean, who doesn't love binge-watching Spider-Man: Brand New Day on Netflix? 
But seriously, this partnership is gonna bring some serious FOMO (fear of missing out) to fans everywhere 
. It's like, we get to enjoy all these awesome Sony movies and TV shows on Netflix, without having to jump through hoops to watch 'em elsewhere 
. And let's be real, the fact that this deal is worth over $7 billion? 
Mind blown! Can't wait to see what kind of magic happens with their licensing rights, might just bring some new IPs (intellectual properties) to Netflix' shelves 
. One thing I do wonder tho, can Netflix keep up with the competition and still churn out that critically acclaimed content? 
Only time will tell! 
"Beyond the Spider-Verse" is finally coming to Netflix, oh my goodness, can't wait to binge-watch it with all my Spidey fans!!! 
And who else is excited about "The Legend of Zelda"? I mean, have you seen those trailers? 
So many iconic Sony movies and TV shows are going straight to Netflix... this is like the ultimate game-changer for streaming! 
What's next?! Will we see more exclusive Sony content on Netflix? Can't wait to find out!!! 
they're just trying to compete with sony and other studios but honestly I love how they're giving us more options to stream our fave movies and shows 
like who wouldn't want to see spider-man and the legend of zelda on their watchlist? 
it's a lot! i mean, both companies seem to benefit from this deal, but what about the other streaming services? are they gonna get left in the dust? and yeah, it'll be interesting to see if netflix can produce its own content that competes with these licensed titles... like, can they make something as good as spider-man? 
especially if they get to keep some sony titles for good 
and btw have you seen spider-man: across the spider-verse 
.
I mean think about it... $7 billion is like, totally insane for a deal with one movie studio 
that would be so lit!
. And on a more pleasant note, apparently Sony and Netflix just made their streaming deal even bigger! That's cool, I guess. But let's not get too distracted from the impending doom of our oceans... 
. Anyway, Sony's movies are gonna be on Netflix forever now. Great, just what we need, more Spider-Man 
. but, like, is netflix really creating its own content now? 
maybe this deal will motivate them to produce some amazing original shows and movies too! 
. But, gotta wonder how long this deal lasts and if Netflix can keep up the quality of the content
