In his home country of Australia, Hugh Jackman expressed his sadness over the illegal leak of the Wolverine movie:"It's a serious crime and there's no doubt it's very disappointing - I was heartbroken by it."
"The FBI are onto it and they're taking it very very seriously," Jackman elaborated to reporters. "Rest assured that person will be found."
But will the leaker be caught? Who knows at this point. OHG has discovered a trend against certain online communities and has reported the discovery in the Silent Wave of Control.As the industry can see, the sneak peak did not hurt movie sales:

For a movie with a $150 million budget, the studio has recouped it's money, at least. Money from DVD sales and rentals are yet to come.
So, again, OHG asks the question: does the online environment harm the profits of big business? With the example of Wolverine, it's definitely a "no."
