DHS finds no evidence for attack on theaters showing ‘The Interview’

The group claiming to have hacked Sony Pictures has warned people to stay away from theaters showing “The Interview,” saying they will attack audiences who show up to see the comedy about North Korea’s leader.

However, the Department of Homeland Security said it has found no evidence such a threat actually exists. “[A]t this time there is no credible intelligence to indicate an active plot against movie theaters within the United States,” the DHS said in an emailed statement. The movie is scheduled to open December 25.
