Sony Pictures will release it’s comedy film “The Interview” in a limited release to independent theaters for a December 25 opening.
More than 300 theaters throughout the US have already placed orders to get the film.
Sony was apparently not expecting so many theaters to want to show the film following the terror threats, but the demand is very high, Sony is apparently having some logistic difficulties getting so many to everyone at the last minute.
The original wide-scale release was cancelled due to security concerns.
Some US theaters have already sold out their opening day showings.
Sony is also planning a simultaneous VOD release.
President Obama applauded the decision to not give into the cyber-terrorism threat, believed to have originated from North Korea.
