Sony Pictures not shutting down films' production

LOS ANGELES: Sony Pictures will continue the production of all its films, despite the reports of a shutdown following the major hack that has shaken the studio.

The James Bond film 'Spectre' is being shot in the UK, while the untitled Peter Landesman-directed film about football concussions that stars Will Smith is shooting in Pittsburgh, reported Deadline.

YA novel adaptation 'The Fifth Wave', about an alien invasion, is being filmed in Atlanta.

Protecting these productions was made top priority the moment hackers breached the studio on November 24, insiders said.

Computer hacking of Sony Pictures Entertainment saw several unreleased films of the studio leaking online and forced it to shut down its email service.
