A documentary about last year's Sony hack is in the works, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Award-winning filmmakers Jehane Noujaim and Karim Amer are working on the documentary, which will reportedly "put forth alternative theories about the hack’s culprit." Not long after the initial hack in November, the FBI and President Barack Obama said North Korea, which wasn't happy with Sony movie "The Interview," was behind the hack. Sony chairwoman Amy Pascal stepped down from her role in February.
The film will use the Sony hack as the entry story into a broader look on international cybersecurity, a theme the filmmakers were working on before the hack occurred.
“The Sony story is an important chapter in this larger issue,” Amer told THR. “The analysts and experts we speak to see it as the 9/11 of cyberattacks, and the implications will be felt for years to come.”
