“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.

“In the action-comedy The Interview, Dave Skylark (James Franco) and his producer Aaron Rapoport (Seth Rogen) run the popular celebrity tabloid TV show “Skylark Tonight.” When they discover that North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un is a fan of the show, they land an interview with him in an attempt to legitimize themselves as journalists. As Dave and Aaron prepare to travel to Pyongyang, their plans change when the CIA recruits them, perhaps the two least-qualified men imaginable, to assassinate Kim Jong-un.”
“The Interview” will not win an Oscar, no it will not have an Oscar winning actor. Was Chevy Chase, Chris Farley, Eddie Murphy, Chris Rock, Adam Sandler, Bill Murray, Mike Myers, Will Ferrell – did a any of them win an Oscar? No, however were their movies not one of the funniest of their time? Exactly. Seth Rogen and James Franco will not win an Oscar because the committee doesn’t rate comical aspects. However this movie is hilarious. Without being one of the “typical” comedy type movies that have come out recently. It’s different comical aspects then what has been common in movie cinema in the past year. Obviously it’s a comedy, and in the category of comedy movies it will rank as one of the higher ones. When you watch this movie you expect that. It’s not a “Beautiful Mind” or “Titanic”. It’s a comedy, and a damn funny one at that. When you watch a comedy you want to laugh, and this movie will make you laugh.
