"Star Wars: The Force Unleashed" (TFA) was one of the most secretive movies of film history. Disney did everything to keep it from leaking. The film even stayed away from awards to prevent DVD screeners getting leaked online. But the Blu-Ray version set to be released in two weeks had been leaked online on Thursday.

According to a report from Torrent Freak, more than 250,000 downloads were made in the first 12 hours of its leakage. Considering that the film grossed over US$ 2 billion at the box office worldwide, the specialists expect the illegal downloads will soar as time goes by.

Security experts warn people who are planning to download the pirated version of the film since it's one of the most popular movie franchises in the world, the downloaded files are very likely to contain malware and spyware.

Also, considering how Disney acted very sternly and strongly against people violating the company's copyrights, the unlucky ones who get sued by Disney for illegally downloading the latest Star Wars Film will not end with a few thousand dollars lawsuit, more likely, they would face an lawsuit demanding huge amount of money which could literally destroy their lives.
