PlayStation maker Sony is considering a purchase of movie studio giant Paramount, according to reports.
Both The New York Times and Bloomberg report that Sony is interested in an offer for Paramount, which itself owns MTV, CBS and Nickelodeon, and operates streaming service Paramount+.
Sony, of course, already has its own vast film and television empire, and has bought other movie studios before – most notably Colombia Pictures, home to Spider-Man and Ghostbusters. It’s interesting to look at Paramount’s franchises in that light, and imagine how PlayStation could elevate one of those in a similar way to how it has championed Spider-Man.
