Venom Helped Drive Up Sony’s Film Unit Success

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”9265″ img_size=”800×450″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]Sony’s Venom was a massive financial success. Despite critics and some naysayers, this film that starred Tom Hardy as the Marvel anti-hero really blew up and made it where it pretty much topped any other Spider-Man movie in the theaters – without ever actually featuring Spider-Man. Due to its success, Venom has bolstered Sony’s film unit to a great profit!

Venom earned in $855 million and Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, which continues to rock the movie theaters, has brought up the studio’s film unit to about $107 million from October to December’s quarter, roughly $93 million up from the same quarter in the previous year. Sony’s full-year profits are forecast at $459 million. Not bad, I would say. Next up? Morbius, starring Jared Leto. Venom showed that Sony didn’t actually need Spider-Man involved in order to do well, so it seems while Disney has the MCU going, Sony is keeping up their own little-extended universe with the character they still own.

Have you gotten to see Venom?
