“Hotel Transylvania: Transformania” are skipping the theaters as Sony Neats over $100 Million Deal with Amazon to stream globally on Amazon Prime Video.
“Hotel Transylvania” has been a franchise for Sony, with the three first films grossing more than $1,3 billion in theaters worldwide since 2012. But the pandemic and the surge in Covid-19 cases driven by the highly contagious dela variant that infects unvaccinated people has made the theatrical exhibition of family pics untenable since there is no vaccine yet for children under 12.
Sources say that in early August, Sony began exploring an alternative release for the fourth “Hotel Transylvania” movie, which had been slated to open in theaters in Oct/Nov.
