In a time of rapidly proliferating streaming services, this deal of a kind that in the past would have normally gone to premium cable networks, is an exception. Sony is the only big Hollywood studio without a streaming service of its own.

Walt Disney Co. has Disney+, AT&T and Warner Bros. have HBO Max, Comcast’s Universal Pictures has Peacock and ViacomCBS Paramount Pictures has Paramount+.

The deal made on Wednesday replaces a long-running pact between Sony and Starz.

Financial terms for the pact weren’t disclosed. During the pandemic, Sony sold Kevin Hart’s Fatherhood, The Mitchells vs. The Machines and Wish Dragon to Netflix. It sent Greyhound to Apple TV+ and American Pickle to HBO Max.

“Sony Pictures is a great partner and we are thrilled to expand our relationship through this forward-thinking agreement.”

Scott Stuber, Netflix’s Global Film Head

“This not only allows us to bring their impressive slate of beloved film franchises and new IP to Netflix in the US, but it also establishes a new source of first-run films for Netflix movie lovers worldwide.”

The deep-pocketed Netflix has been aggressively expanding its film library streaming landscape. It also lately attained the rights to multiple Knives Out sequels in a contract that reportedly exceeds $450 million.
