The box office success of Spider-Man: Brand New Day lifted Sony Pictures Entertainment’s operating profit to US$ 581 million in the company’s second fiscal quarter, which ended on September 30, 2026. That was up 525% from the same period a year earlier. Total revenue rose 37% to US$ 3.23 billion.

The film’s impact was clearest in the motion picture division, which includes theatrical, home entertainment, and television and streaming sales. Revenue for the division reached US$ 1.82 billion, up 155% year over year. Other releases contributing to the result included Evil Dead Burn, for which Sony holds only international rights, Insidious: Out of the Further and Resident Evil.

Theatrical revenue alone surged 1,020% during the quarter. The gains, however, did not extend across every part of Sony Pictures.

The television division posted revenue of US$ 483 million, down 31% from US$ 701 million in the same quarter a year earlier. Media networks, which include TV channels, digital channels and the anime streaming service Crunchyroll, brought in US$ 896 million, a decline of 2%. According to Sony, the company ended the period with 38 television channels; Crunchyroll had more than 21 million paid subscribers in March 2026.

Elsewhere at Sony, Sony Music Entertainment also grew, with quarterly revenue reaching US$ 3.72 billion. Michael Jackson’s Thriller was the label’s second-best-selling project during the period, behind ATEEZ’s GOLDEN HOUR: Part.5.

Looking ahead to Sony Pictures’ next quarter, the box office results for The Social Reckoning and Klara and the Sun contrast with the studio’s expectations for Jumanji: Open World, which is set for a Christmas release.
