  The Interview

  £125.00

  “Dave Skylark and his producer Aaron Rapaport run the celebrity tabloid show “Skylark Tonight”. When they land an interview with a surprise fan, North Korean dictator Jong-Un Kim, they are recruited by the CIA to assassinate him.”

  Few modern film campaigns have generated as much controversy as “The Interview”, represented here by its unmistakable propaganda-style US one-sheet poster. Designed by Ignition, the bold artwork places Aaron Rapaport (Seth Rogen) and Dave Skylark (James Franco) amid missiles, soldiers, tanks and radiating communist imagery, with Korean lettering completing its deliberately provocative appearance.

  Directed by Rogen and Evan Goldberg, the action comedy follows a television presenter and his producer whose planned interview with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un becomes an unlikely CIA assassination mission. The film attracted worldwide attention after a major cyberattack on Sony Pictures and threats against cinemas disrupted its planned theatrical release. It ultimately opened in a limited number of independent venues on Christmas Day 2014 alongside a digital release.

  Measuring 27 × 40 inches, the poster is presented rolled (as issued) and remains in excellent condition. Although the artwork appears distressed and weathered around the edges, this is an intentional element of the printed design rather than actual wear. With tremendous visual impact, this highly desirable piece of rare cinematic memorabilia makes a superb display piece for collectors of controversial films, distinctive poster artwork and modern cinema history.

  Trivia: With all the support from politicans and celebrities such as George Clooney, Sean Penn, Michael Moore, and even President Barack Obama, Sony Pictures Entertainment decided to release the film on the original release date of December 25, 2014 in select theaters and Video-On-Demand.
