#Sony has confirmed that “The Interview” starring James Franco and Seth Rogen will be showing at several theaters on #ChristmasDay.
Sony CEO #MichaelLynton told CNN in a statement today:
“We have never given up on releasing The Interview and we’re excited our movie will be in a number of theaters on Christmas Day. At the same time, we are continuing our efforts to secure more platforms and more theaters so that this movie reaches the largest possible audience.”
Two independent movie theaters, the Plaza Atlanta theater and Alamo Drafthouse also announced the news on Twitter. Many movie houses said last week that they would not be showing the controversial film after hackers threatened to blow up theaters. THR reports that Sony will offer the film as a VOD option so it can be available to the greater public.
Yay!! Sony wins, hackers lose!
