During an interview with CNN’s Christine Amanpour, the Hollywood director was asked if he thought it was feasible that Russians hacked the DNC in order to influence the election.

“I think it’s a great fiction,” Stone — who recently made a movie about Edward Snowden — said. “I think it serves a purpose to disguise what’s really going on. The intelligence experts that I’ve talked to have indicated to me that it was probably an inside job.” (RELATED: Rosario Dawson Eviscerates Hillary Clinton Over The Way She Handled The DNC Email Leak)

When pressed by Amanpour about what he meant, Stone said he “couldn’t go into all that information.”

“From the Democrats. From somebody who’s worked at the committee. Or somebody who knows about it.”
