In cinematic future of Sony isn't just the Uncharted movie starring Tom Holland as PlayStation icon Nathan Drake. In fact, the company hopes for a better amalgamation between its products and in particular giving emphasis on PlayStation franchises on screen.
Sony Pictures CEO Tony Vinciquerra said that Seven TV series and three films starring PlayStation products and characters are in the works, which for a month now has gone all out with its new Juventus console. He also talked about a program called “One Sony”, which has the express purpose of bringing together the different products under a single aegis and giving substance to his idea.
We know that Uncharted filming is over and that a TV series inspired by The Last of Us is in the works at HBO, with Joel and Ellie in the front row, but they may just be the first of the “mascots”. There was talk, for example, of a remake of God of War that has never seen the light and that, given the success of the Santa Monica franchise, it is not difficult to imagine coming to life with real actors.
Vinciquerra also expressed himself regarding the advent of streaming due to COVID-19, saying he was in favor of allowing at least 30 days to pass from the cinema to the various streaming platforms.
Also due to the coronavirus, Sony Pictures had to revise its plans, postponing several of its productions to 2021 such as Morbius, Ghostbusters: Afterlife and the sequel to Venom. Warner Bros. instead has decided to release all its films simultaneously both via streaming and in theaters, creating not a few discontent.
