Hackers are claiming to have stolen an upcoming Disney movie and are demanding a ransom, according media reporters. Disney CEO Bob Iger first revealed the hackers’ claim in a staff meeting with employees in New York City, Deadline.com and The Hollywood Reporter reported. Disney is working with federal investigators and will not pay the ransom, the reports say.
Movie website Deadline identified Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales, which opens on May 26, as the target, without revealing its sources, while some film writers speculated on Twitter that Pixar’s Cars 3, due for release next month, might have been hit.
Walt Disney is said to be working with an adviser on a potential Twitter bid, according to a Bloomberg report on Monday, putting the entertainment company together with firms such as Google and Salesforce in the race to buy San Francisco-based social network. The purchase would give Disney a new online outlet for entertainment.
