Cue:
Hollywood Film, The Interview, has earnt its producers almost seven times more money through its online release than at the box office. Our entertainment correspondent, reports on the effects this could have on cinemas as a whole...
Voicepiece:
The interview; the film that brought Sony to its knees at the end of last year, has now provided us with an insight to the future of cinema. After the initial hack on Sony regarding the controversial film about the assassination of the North Korean leader, the future of potential blockbuster remained uncertain. But it was later announced the film would receive a limited cinema release, as well as online, which allow people to pay to watch the film without even leaving their homes.
Its been revealed that the film grossed almost seven times more from the online sales, a revenue of forty million dollars, compared with box office sales, earning only five point nine million dollars. Could these statistics change the way we view our films in the future?
