Fusion said its international film booker tried unsuccessfully to secure the movie for its July 31 release and that Sony had not responded to questions about the decision. “Sony Pictures is the distributor for Spider-Man: Brand New Day. As is standard in the industry, films are licensed to exhibitors, including Fusion Superplex, on a title-by-title basis,” Mr Bridgewater said. Fusion said the limited release had made the film inaccessible to many Bahamians who would ordinarily watch it at its nine-screen complex. The cinema said it remains hopeful that Sony will license the film for release on August 7.
