Twitter Sued By Sony Following Email Hack-Related Tweets & Seth Rogen, James Franco ‘The Interview’ Movie Pull? [VIDEO]

It hasn't happened yet, but Sony has certainly threatened to sue Twitter after some hack-related tweets have come out following word (and visuals) of that famed hacking job, which was reportedly done by our friends over in North Korea. The hack job leaked a number of emails that took place within the industry, specifically ones between producer Scott Rudin and Sony's Amy Pascal about Angelina Jolie as well as a number of others that were equally offensive and secretive. The intention of the hack was to have the company pull the heavily anticipated Seth Rogen, James Franco-led film The Interview––in which the two travel to North Korea to kill Kim Jong-un. And, well, it happened. Sony pulled the movie...

Womp, womp, womp...

According to The Hollywood Reporter (via Motherboard), David Boies, Sony Pictures' lawyer, has been hired to deal with the unfortunate cyber hack which has taken the studio down a few pegs. THR notes that a letter was sent to Twitter's Vijaya Gadde, saying that if "stolen information continues to be disseminated by Twitter in any manner," the film company will hold the social media platform "responsible for any damage or loss arising from such use or dissemination by Twitter."

Oh boy ... look out!

Furthermore, Sony demanded that Twitter fulfill all further requests "with regard to any other account holder seeking to disseminate the Stolen Information via Twitter." They also demanded Twitter give the "Account Holder" a copy of the letter, requesting they stop publicizing the stolen information on Twitter, should it happen.

As mentioned, Rogen and Franco's film The Interview, which was originally scheduled for a Christmas Day (Dec. 25) release date, has been pulled. Check out the trailer for the film here.

Readers, do you think Sony made the right move pulling Rogen and Franco's new film?
