Sony lawyer David Boies on Sunday said that the company will find a way to distribute “The Interview,” even though the film’s release was delayed after Sony’s emails were hacked and threats were made related to the film.
“Sony only delayed this. Sony has been fighting to get this picture distributed. It will be distributed,” Boies said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” “How it’s going to be distributed, I don’t think anybody knows quite yet. But it’s going to be distributed.”
He then called on the federal government to help address the cyberattack.
“The government has got to lead. The F.B.I. has just been terrific in this,” Boies said. “Now the rest of the government has got to get behind it and has got to figure out a way that we can protect our national security. Because this is a national security threat. I think the president is beginning to recognize that. And I think that’s a good thing. But now we’ve got to have some actions following from the words.”
