the interview

Earlier today it was announced that Sony will release ‘The Interview’ in select theaters and on VOD this Christmas Day after all. Following the massive hacker attack on the company and subsequent terrorist threats from the group known as Guardians of Peace, Sony had no choice but to cancel the film’s release after major theater chains decided not to show the film. In a wonderful turn of events, following a petition from Art House Convergence, which was signed by many independent exhibitors, Sony is moving forward with the release. We have the full list of theaters that will screen the film this Thursday.

As you probably have heard, a group of hackers known as the Guardians of Peace, hacked the Sony Pictures server and released a lot of information including DVD screeners of certain Sony films like Fury, and the remake of Annie, movie scripts including the new James Bond film SPECTRE and private information including emails and employee information.

North Korea's Supreme Leader Kim Jong-un has threatened war on the US if they support the release of the James Franco and Seth Rogen movie, The Interview.
