ALBAWABA - Sony is getting ready to make the movie "Cola vs. Pepsi," which has a budget of $1.5 million. According to the story called "Cola Wars," the movie is about how Coca-Cola and Pepsi, two big drink companies, fight to be the market leader. 

The movie is set in the 1980s, which were known as the "cola wars," and it looks like it will be about how competitive the soda business was at that time.

According to the plot, Pepsi is trying very hard to compete with Coca-Cola in the market and steal a lot of its customers. It will show famous events from the time, like Michael Jackson's famous Pepsi ad mess-up and Coca-Cola's disastrous launch of New Coke. 

The story, which was written by Jason Shuman and Ben Queen, looks like it will capture the spirit of the time and the close fight between the two big drink companies.

Coca-Cola makes more money than any other cola company in the world. Its most famous name is Coca-Cola, but it also makes popular drinks like Sprite, Fanta, and Powerade. The second place goes to Pepsi, which is known for names like Mountain Dew and Gatorade.

Sony Pictures bought the idea for the movie and is now going forward with production, even though the project is still in its early stages. But information about the cast, director, and release date has not been made public yet.

"Cola vs. Pepsi" is a movie that tries to bring the famous rivalry between two industry giants to the big screen. It gives people a look into one of the most heated fights in the history of business.
