For the past three years, when media pundits have criticized our actions, Sony has remained unfazed. We are the only major studio dedicated entirely to cinema. We were sure that movies in cinemas could not only survive, they could triumph – He said. – Another thing the experts say is that movie stars don’t count anymore. I hope my competitors believe this nonsense. Real stars are now more important than ever. However, they are rarer than ever. Streaming platforms don’t make movie stars. Only international films make it.

Rothman has also boasted a wide variety of theatrical filmography Sony, even if they are sometimes not successful at the box office: At Sony we don’t fail.
