The Hustler founder is not scared of North Korea.
Larry Flynt, the controversial founder of Hustler magazine, says he intends to produce a pornographic version of The Interview, which was axed by Sony last week after the biggest corporate hack in history.
Sony pulled the plug on the film’s release after cinemas in the United States refused to screen. The film depicts a plot to kill North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un, and stars James France and Seth Rogen.
“If Kim Jong-un and his henchmen were upset before, wait till they see the movie we’re going to make,” said Hustler founder and chairman Larry Flynt.
“I’ve spent a lifetime fighting for the First Amendment, and no foreign dictator is going to take away my right to free speech.”
Flynt plans to call his version This Ain’t The Interview XXX, with production set to begin in the first quarter of next year.
