The Interview To Be Streamed On Various Platforms [UPDATED]

Sony Pictures has announced that The Interview will be on Google Play,YouTube Movies, Microsoft’s Xbox Video and its own website http://www.seetheinterview.com for $5.99. It should be available by the time you read this. Google also came out on their blog saying among other things this:

“we could not sit on the sidelines and allow a handful of people to determine the limits of free speech in another country (however silly the content might be).”

To recap, here’s how you can see The Interview:

Google Play: You can go to play.google.com to buy or rent it. Or you can watch it in the Play Movies & TV app on Android and iOS phones or tablets, or streamed via Chromecast, Roku or the Nexus Player.

YouTube: Surf to youtube.com/movies or use the YouTube app, Chromecast, Apple TV, PlayStation and Xbox.

Microsoft’s Xbox Video: Buy or rent the movie using the Xbox Video app on Xbox One, Xbox 360, Windows 8, Windows Phone 8 and XboxVideo.com.

SeetheInterview.com: If none of that is an option, it is available http://www.seetheinterview.com, which is sponsored by Sony Pictures and powered by Kernel and with payments through Stripe, a secure payment platform.

You can also see it in select theaters tomorrow.

I guess it is clear now that those hackers known as “The Guardians Of Peace” did an outstanding job of shutting this movie down. Now more people than ever will see this film.

UPDATE: This appears to be US only. At least for the time being. Ditto for seeing The Interview in Canadian movie theaters.
