Walt Disney Co Chief Executive Bob Iger has revealed that hackers claimed to have access to an unnamed upcoming movie and have demanded a ransom, the Hollywood Reporter said on Monday.
Iger made the comments during a town hall meeting with ABC employees in New York City, the Hollywood Reporter said, citing multiple sources.
The hackers have demanded that a huge sum be paid on Bitcoin, but Disney has refused to pay, the publication said.
Disney was not immediately available for comment.
