Paramount won't let theaters screen 'Team America: World Police"
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}And Hollywood caves, again.
Following Sony’s announcement pulling the plug on “The Interview,” Paramount Pictures is ordering theaters across the country not to screen “Team America: World Police” in its place.
The Alamo Drafthouse in Dallas, Texas, was one of the theaters set to play the flick, but had canceled the screening as of Thursday afternoon.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Directed by Trey Parker and Matt Stone (“South Park”), “Team America: World Police” centers on an antiterror group trying to save the world from evildoers backed by the former leader of North Korea, Kim Jong-il. Unlike “The Interview,” “Team America” features an abundance of puppets and a seriously awesome theme song that puts the “F” in freedom.
Paramount has yet to comment.
