Japan has been doing this for generations.  Nice of you to catch up sony.  Sony will start making big screen films for teens and adults (pg-13 and rated R) as well as kids movies.  Three films announced.

Re: Sony Making More Animated Films for Teens and Adults (pg-13 and R movies)
Well, to be fair, that’s still quite a niche market, especially internationally. These will be massive Spider-Verse worldwide releases, which hasn’t really been done too much on a big budget scale before.

Or, IOW, "Everyone loved us for Spiderman, and not for Angry Birds 2".
And Sony Animation can only have one studio savior at a time, so looks like they may scale back on Hotel Transylvania 4.
