Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales, due out on 26 May, was only 10 days from release when hackers stole a copy from a post-production company in LA.They demanded a ransom, believed to be $80,000 (£61,700).
The Brad Pitt war film Fury was a smash hit on the torrent sites when it was leaked in 2014, yet the remake of Annie, which came from the same cache of films pilfered in the Sony hack, got a fifth of Fury’s downloads.
Cars 3 is another movie that the hackers may have managed to steal. According to Softpedia, the pirated torrent links have been taken down after it appeared on the internet. But leaked movie might resurface again as some people might have downloaded it by now or the hacker group itself re-uploads it.
