USAn premiere of the comedy Interview postponed
The USA premiere of the comedy "Interview", which was scheduled for January 29, 2015, has been postponed indefinitely. This information was confirmed in the office of Sony Pictures studio in USA. Representatives of the company insist on the postponement, and not cancellation of the movie rental, promising to clarify the new date of the premiere later. Recall that the studio's American office decided to cancel the movie distribution after the publication of an open letter from the "Peace Defenders" group, which contained threats "to repeat the events of September 11, 2001". Earlier, Sony Pictures was subjected to a large-scale cyberattack, as a result of which attackers got into the hands of not only confidential documents of the company, including the correspondence of its management, but also the personal data of employees. Cancellation of the comedy rental caused a heated controversy in Hollywood. Many celebrities condemned this decision, believing that it set a dangerous precedent that attacks free speech and instills confidence in criminals in the effectiveness of such tactics. The plot of the comedy "Interview" was built around two TV journalists who are about to interview the North Korean leader, but find themselves involved in a conspiracy to assassinate him.
