Sony also released the movie in paid, online rentals on Wednesday.
The change of decision in releasing the film came about during a conference call with Sony executives, the report said.
The closest theaters showing the movie are:
- Front Street Stadium, Hartford
- Apple Cinemas, Waterbury
- The Alamo, Yonkers.
The first Yonkers showing, at midnight, is already sold out, according to The Alamo's website.
Sony announced a week ago that it has canceled the planned Dec. 25 release of the movie after a hacking attack and threats against theaters that planned to show the movie.
That decision came after several major cinemas dropped the film, a comedy which focuses on a pair of TV journalists, played by actors James Franco and Seth Rogen, who are recruited by the CIA in a plot to assassinate North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
The U.S. government has blamed the North Korean government for the hacking attack.
