"The Interview" is not over, after all.
Despite threats from hackers, Sony (SNE) Pictures is making the controversial Seth Rogen comedy available at a limited number of theaters starting on Christmas.
The movie studio's CEO, Michael Lynton, said Tuesday that "we're excited our movie will be in a number of theaters on Christmas Day."
He did not specify an exact number because the plans were still being worked out. As of 6 p.m. ET, 190 independently-owned theaters have agreed to show the film, and more theater announcements are expected.
Theaters have until about 8 p.m. on Tuesday to request copies of the film from Sony.
