Details

In The Interview, Dave Skylark and Aaron Rapoport, the hosts of a celebrity tabloid TV show called Skylark Tonight, find out that Kim Jong-un, the dictator of North Korea, is a fan of their show. They seize this opportunity and secure an interview with him in an attempt to establish themselves as legitimate journalists. However, things take an unexpected turn when the CIA reaches out to them. The agency recruits Dave and Aaron for a dangerous mission: assassinating Kim Jong-un.

As the two men prepare to travel to Pyongyang, they are given intensive training in espionage and combat. Despite their lack of qualifications, they accept the mission, believing it is their chance to make a difference. In North Korea, Dave and Aaron face a series of hilarious and absurd challenges while trying to carry out their dangerous task.

The Interview is an action-comedy that combines elements of humor, suspense, and political satire. James Franco plays Dave Skylark, the charismatic and somewhat clueless host, while Seth Rogen portrays Aaron Rapoport, the more cautious and grounded producer. The movie takes a lighthearted approach to the tense relations between North Korea and the United States, providing an entertaining and sometimes outrageous commentary on international affairs.
