Sony Pictures Q2 Profits Soars to $581 Million Due to 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day'

Sony Pictures’ fiscal second quarter delivered a major jump in profitability, boosted by the box-office success of “Spider-Man: Brand New Day.” Operating income for the three months ending September 30, 2026 rose 525% to $581 million versus the comparable period a year earlier, while Q2 sales climbed 37% year-on-year to $3.23 billion. Revenue in the Motion Pictures segment increased 155% to $1.82 billion, powered by “Brand New Day” and titles including “Evil Dead Burn” (international rights only), “Insidious: Out of the Further,” and “Resident Evil.” The outlook for the next quarter looks weaker as “The Social Reckoning” and “Klara and the Sun” underperformed, though “Jumanji: Open World” opens on Christmas Day.
