Its been a few weeks but now it looks like Netflix is finally joining The Interview club and will be streaming the controversial film starting this weekend. Unfortunately, the company may be a bit late to the part because, while The Interview was incredibly popular in the days following its release online, things have been slowing down considerably this last week.
If you weren’t one of the (un?)lucky ones who paid to stream The Interview over a mobile device a few weeks ago, we have some news for you. The most talked about movie of the year will be available to Netflix subscribers starting on Saturday. You would have to be awakening from a coma not to know the background of this film. The plot involves two news reporters (Seth Rogen, James Franco) who are planning an interview with North Korea leader Kim Jong-un and are asked by the CIA to assassinate the Supreme Leader. Word about the movie made its way to North Korea, and the next thing you know, Sony was hacked by a North Korean hack squad. Some of the information leaked revealed news about the Sony Xperia Z4 and product placements for the next James Bond movie. As we’ve pointed out before, it didn’t help that the Japanese electronics and entertainment company had kept its passwords in a file marked “passwords”.
