The superhero prequel was downloaded an estimated 100,000 times from file-sharing networks before it was detected and removed. It is not scheduled for release until May 1 in the US and April 29 in the UK.
In a statement posted on its official website, Rising Sun Pictures said: "As we worked on individual sequences within the film, neither Rising Sun Pictures or its staff members have ever been in possession of a full-length version, so it would have been impossible for the movie to have been leaked from here."
The company was forced to issue the denial after its logo was identified in an on-screen caption a few minutes into the movie.
Yesterday, 20th Century Fox claimed that the source of the leak will be "prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law", adding that the FBI is "actively investigating" the incident.
