'Pirates of the Caribbean 5' Held For Ransom By Hackers, Disney Refuses to Pay (Report)

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales has reportedly been stolen by hackers ahead of the May 26 release date.

Deadline has apparently confirmed that the film was stolen, but Bob Iger, Disney’s CEO, will not be paying any ransom to the hackers. The hackers want a sum of money paid to Bitcoin, Bob told ABC employees during a town hall meeting, Deadline reports.

Disney is reportedly working with the FBI to remedy the situation.

The film stars Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow, with Keira Knightley, Orlando Bloom, Javier Bardem, Kaya Scodelario, Brenton Thwaites and more.
