The Interview On Christmas Day: A Complete List Of Theaters Showing The Movie

As you may have heard, this morning saw a major turnaround in the situation regarding Sony Pictures and Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg’s The Interview. A few days after cancelling release plans for the comedy due to the major theatrical chains pulling support, the studio has announced that The Interview will indeed be in theaters on Christmas Day in limited release. But where exactly will you be able to see it? The answer to that question has finally arrived.

Variety has gotten its hands on a select list of theaters that will be showing screenings of The Interview on Christmas Day (though there is one location that will only have the movie starting on New Year’s Eve). The most recent reports have said that the film will be showing in about 300 theaters nationwide, and while the full list isn't available just yet, here are the locations we know about so far. We will update this list as more information becomes available.

Looking at this list, you may notice something rather significant – or, rather, you may notice something significant missing. There is a distinct lack of AMC, Regal, Landmark, Cinemark or any other major theatrical chains listed. Instead it’s mostly smaller movie houses that have announced their willingness to show The Interview. In fact, The Bijou Theater in Traverse City, Michigan is owned by none other than documentarian Michael Moore, who announced screenings of the Seth Rogen-James Franco comedy on his personal Twitter feed:

I will be showing "The Interview" at my theater, The Bijou, in Traverse City, beginning on ChristmasDay. #NoCensorshipEver #thankyouSony

— Michael Moore (@MMFlint) December 23, 2014

While it’s hard to say for certain with the information available, I hope that in some form of retaliation on Sony’s behalf, as they are getting back at the major theater chains for leaving them high and dry as terrorist threats came in.

Are there any theaters near you that are planning to show The Interview that aren't on the list above? Let us know in the comments, and we'll be sure to add them!
