North Korea is once again fuming after learning that a UK political thriller about the country was commissioned.

Channel 4 recently commissioned the series Opposite Number, based off Matt Charman's script. The drama will follow a British nuclear scientist held prisoner in North Korea, Variety reports.

The National Defense Commission released a statement slamming the series, along with the producers and Britain, saying Opposite Number is "malignantly slandering" North Korea and it is a "conspiratorial charade."

They continue on, calling the producers "hooligans and rogues," with the UK government assisting in the lies and it is a "hostile act."

The government also isn't happy that the political thriller could give the appearance that North Korea wasn't responsible for their own nuclear technology. Opposite Number "is based on a sheer lie intended to give the impress that [North Korea's] nuclear treasured sword for self-defense was manufactured by 'illegally acquiring' nuclear technology" from another country.

Much like in other angry letters, the country cautioned that the government "would be well advised to judge itself what consequences would be entailed if it ignores [North Korea's] warning."

The letter is similar in tone to the one Ambassador to the United Nations Ja Song Nam sent to UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon slamming the upcoming U.S. film The Interview.

In the film, two journalists (played by Seth Rogen and James Franco, right) are tasked with assassinating North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.

The letter claimed that the movie would be akin to "sponsoring terrorism," but so far nothing looks to be preventing the comedy from its December release.
