Sony Pictures Entertainment hackers took a draft of the script for the new James Bond movie Spectre, according to producers of the film.
The draft script was part of the many compromised data that was stolen from the Sony studio's computers by the hackers known as "Guardians of Peace" in November.
A statement from the official 007 website says that Eon Productions is concerned that the stolen script of Spectre, which is slated for release in November 2015, may be disseminated online.
"Eon Productions is concerned that third parties who have received the stolen screenplay may seek to publish it or its contents," the statement said in the official website for the film.
The new movie began its filming in December, following the reveal of its cast and title in London, United Kingdom.
In addition, it was also revealed that James Bond would drive another luxurious car, the Aston martin DB10, in the Spectre film.
However, no plot spoilers, sneak peeks or details were revealed about the upcoming film.
The news about the cyber attack prompted reports that Sony would stop production in its line of upcoming movies, but a spokesperson from the Japanese multinational corporation, Robert Lawson, denied the rumors and said that the studio's productions will and are "still moving forward."
The James Bond franchise is one of Sony Pictures' valuable assets as the "Skyfall" film in 2012 generated over $1 billion globally.
FireEye Inc., a cyber-security expert firm hired by Sony to investigate the recent cyber-attack, have said that the data breach was "unprecedented."
Additionally, experts in the industry said that Sony might have to face around $100 million in costs regarding the cyber attack.
