The premiere of "The Interview" was on, then it was off, and now it's back on again.

The assassination comedy has plagued Sony Pictures in recent weeks, but it'll apparently now be available on YouTube and shown in a handful of independent theaters across the country starting Christmas Day, including Laemmle Theatres here in Southern California.
