Despite the series of hacking threats, Sony's "The Interview" still pushed its release last Christmas. Although the premiere of the comedy movie is limited, it still rocks the box office as its earnings, reportedly, have already reached more than one million dollars.

"I'd be surprised if this wasn't one of the biggest VOD events ever," said by Jeff Bock, a box office analyst at Exhibitor Relations.

Reuters reports that the "The Interview" took in more than $1 million in a limited Christmas Day release.

The film's storyline made the North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un angry and before the political comedy film was released, there were series of hacking attack that happened to Sony Pictures exposing private files and conversation. Despite the issue, the demands of watching this movie went high.
