Sony Hacked Emails Reveal Beyoncé’s Dad’s Movie Plans, Kanye West Film As Hackers Promise ‘Christmas Gift’


Call the Sony hacked emails the gift that keeps on giving, with secrets uncovered by the hacked emails from Sony servers revealing Hollywood plans Sony wants to keep secret. First off comes the news that Beyoncé’s dad tried to pitch a Destiny’s Child movie to Sony in December 2013, according to TMZ, and the leaked Sony hacked emails unveil that Sony executives seemed to warm to the idea, but it looks like it never came to fruition.

Lifetime has a Destiny’s Child movie in the works, as the network does for the Whitney Houston movie, the trailer for which was recently released, reported the Inquisitr — but there hasn’t been confirmation on whether or not the Mathew Knowles movie is the same one that will appear on Lifetime.

Meanwhile, the hacked Sony emails that were leaked also reveal an employee of Kanye West emailed embattled Sony Pictures chairwoman Amy Pascal, pitching the Sony executive a Kanye vehicle that promised to employ “cinematic and technological innovation,” says TMZ.

The hackers haven’t stopped with their hacking and releasing of the data they’ve retrieved from the Sony employees. In a new email, entitled “Merry Christmas,” according to CNN, the Sony hackers have promised a Christmas gift that sounds like anything but a gift for any of the Sony employees who were victims of the email hack.

“We are preparing for you a Christmas gift. The gift will be larger quantities of data. And give you much more pleasure and put Sony Pictures into the worst state.”

As the news of the email hacking heats up, and more websites publish reports about the findings unveiled in the hacked data, Sony Pictures has now demanded that news organizations delete the “stolen” hacked email data, according to the New York Times.

On Sunday, Sony Pictures Entertainment sent a warning to news outlets about using the massive amount of data found in the Sony hacked emails to craft articles.

The New York Times says they received a letter from David Boies, a Sony attorney, whose strongly-worded letter categorized the Sony hacked emails as stolen data that shouldn’t be downloaded, read, reviewed, copied, or published.

The Sony hacked emails revealed embarrassing emails about President Obama’s potential desire for black movies, causing Sony Pictures co-chairwoman Amy Pascal and Scott Rudin, a prominent producer, to apologize for the racially tinged exchange.

The hackers have urged Sony to stop promoting The Interview, a movie about the attempted assassination the North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, which is set for release on Christmas Day.
