The Interview will eventually be released — but Sony doesn’t know how just yet.
Sony lawyer David Boies went on Meet the Press Sunday
morning to discuss Sony’s decision to pull the Seth Rogen and James
Franco comedy out of theaters. “Sony has been fighting to get this
picture distributed,” he said. “It will be distributed. How it’s going
to be distributed, I don’t think anybody knows quite yet. But it’s going
to be distributed.”
Sony delayed the release of The Interview, which was set to open Christmas day, as a result of threats from hackers. Although Sony initially told EW they have “no further release plans” for the film, they later said
it is still their “hope that anyone who wants to see this movie will
get the opportunity to do so.” However, according to CEO Michael Lynton,
as of now, no major VOD distributor “is willing to distribute this
movie.”
