Fox Pulls The Plug On Gore Verbinski's North Korean Drama, Pyongyang
The latest casualty of the North Korean hacks and threats of violence is Gore Verbinski's new film, Pyongyang. It was going to be set in North Korea and star Steve Carell. The production company, New Regency, decided to cancel the film after its distributor, Fox, decided not to distribute the film. Prior to the cancellation it was "green lit and fully funded."
Gore Verbinski shared his thoughts on the issue:
All of these recent events are starting to seem like a parody.
The F.B.I. has officially confirmed that North Korea is responsible for the Sony data breach.
Now the "hackers" have made further demands:
"Now we want you never let the movie released, distributed or leaked in any form of, for instance, DVD or piracy." It reportedly went on to demand that, "everything related to the movie, including its trailers, as well as its full version down from any website hosting them immediately."
And more bad news. Paramount Studios orders planned screenings of Team America canceled allegedly so that they don't become targets of the North Korean regime!
"I find it ironic that fear is eliminating the possibility to tell stories that depict our ability to overcome fear."
There is still the possibility of the film being produced elsewhere in the future but for now it is dead.
Remember when Hollywood stood up to dictators?

As of noon today Fandango still shows tickets available to purchase at local AMC theater. I have a feeling that it will take some time to update their system.
At least one activist is not going to give in to threats from the dictatorship. Human Rights Foundation founter, Thor Halvorssen, is planning on a "helium balloon release" of The Interview.
He is planning to attach DVD copies of the movie and air drop them into North Korea.

They say that there is no such thing as bad publicity but Sony doesn't seem to think so in this case. Perhaps the film is not very good and isn't worth the risk in light of the threats.
Either way it's a sad day for freedom and democracy.
