Likewise, Hollywood has also shared the frustrations by echoing a common sentiment that creative freedom seemed to have taken a back seat to fear.
The decision to pull the film comes after terrorist threats made by hackers now confirmed to have been working for North Korea.

. @JuddApatow I agree wholeheartedly. An un-American act of cowardice that validates terrorist actions and sets a terrifying precedent.— Jimmy Kimmel (@jimmykimmel) December 17, 2014
Sad day for creative expression. #feareatsthesoul

All joking aside, we just gave a comfy foothold to censorship & it doesn’t get any better from this point on. #TheInterview

Saw @Sethrogen at JFK. Both of us have never seen or heard of anything like this. Hollywood has done Neville Chamberlain proud today.
