Sony Pictures Eyes Action Comedies and Anime Live-Action Remakes

Sony Pictures wants to make more movies around the world that are not in English.

The head of their international movie team, Shebnem Askin, spoke at a big movie event called TIFFCOM.

She said that when she first started, she focused a lot on making funny movies because people seemed to need cheering up.

Now, she wants to make different kinds of movies.

She is looking for action-comedies, which are hard to find.

She is also very excited about turning popular Japanese anime shows into real-life movies.

Sony already makes movies in different languages and remakes movies from other countries.

To decide if a movie gets made, they look at if it's a good story and if it can make money.

They get help from their teams in different countries to figure this out.

They need at least five people to agree before they can start making a movie.
