Sony releases The Interview on Xmas Day
December 24, 2014
Sony Pictures will release The Interview to about 200 independent US theatres on Christmas Day after coming under criticism from President Obama and others for giving into pressure from North Korea.
The White House praised Sony’s about-face: “The decision made by Sony and participating theatres allows people to make their own choices about the film, and we welcome that outcome,” presidential spokesman Eric Schultz said in a statement.
