News Summary:

Rising Sun Pictures (RSP) recently detailed its contributions to *Wicked: For Good*, delivering environment extensions and intricate golden butterfly visual effects to the film. This follows RSP's extensive work on *Sinners*, where the team focused on creating photoreal twinning sequences that allowed Michael B. Jordan to convincingly share the frame with himself, prioritizing realism over spectacle. Earlier in March 2026, the studio's Adelaide team was recognized for its contribution to *Sinners*, which was the year's most-nominated film, specifically for the VFX that made Jordan appear twice at IMAX resolution. In December 2025, it was noted that RSP served as one of the visual effects vendors for *Wicked: For Good*, alongside ILM, Framestore, and others, contributing to the film's more than 1800 VFX shots. Previously, in November 2025, Pitch Black, RSP's parent company, appointed Alexandra Daunt Watney as President of Rising Sun Pictures, drawing on her experience as Co-Global Head of Production and Head of Studio Adelaide at MPC.
