LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - The Sony Pictures comedy "The Interview" will play in more than 200 theatres, a spokesperson said Tuesday, after the studio decided to do a limited release with independent exhibitors on Christmas Day.
Sony Pictures scrapped a wide release last week after the biggest movie theatre chains said they would not screen the film over security concerns made by hackers incensed by the film's story line about a plan to assassinate North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
