It’s on, it’s off, and it’s on again — the hack-attacked Sony Pictures production “The Interview” will open in a limited number of theaters on Christmas Day, including two in the Tulsa area.

Circle Cinema and RiverWalk Movies in Jenks will be showing the film beginning Thursday afternoon, representatives of the two theaters said.

“I don’t think we should be told what we can and cannot show at the movies,” said RiverWalk Movies co-owner Blake Smith, who was examining the decision to play the comedy last week before Sony Pictures pulled the picture from its Dec. 25 release date.

“That’s how I feel about it, and I feel pretty strongly about it,” Smith said.

He said the Seth Rogen-James Franco comedy will play on Thursday at RiverWalk at 1:30 p.m., 4:30 p.m., 7:30 p.m. and 10:10 p.m. He said he was still charting out screen times for the movie to play on dates from Friday through Jan. 1.

Tickets for the film can be purchased online at circlecinema.com — or at riverwalkmovies.com by about 7 p.m. Tuesday, Smith said, and in-person ticket purchases will be offered after 5 p.m.
