Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales hits theaters, legally and all in one piece, on May 26.
And, hey, why not start big, with, say, Disney, the biggest studio in the business?
The hackers are holding the film for ransom, to be paid in Bitcoin, but Iger stated that he had no plans to do that because Disney does not negotiate with pirates.
The hackers say that they’ll start by releasing five minutes of the film if the ransom is not paid, akin to, I suppose, cutting off a hostage’s finger, and then in 20 minute increments if Disney continues to fail to follow through.
