Now that I've got you with the clickbait title - Yes, it's true. I'm not going to link anywhere to it, you can find the stories on Google.
What I'm here for is to start a pledge. No matter what, this leak was bad for the movie industry. I am not against piracy, but the cinemas have at least the right to make sure the show hits the theater screens before ( or at the same time ) as we can download it.
My worry is that the people downloading this now will have no reason to go see it in the cinema, therefore destroying the revenue generated, and preventing an Expendables 4 from being filmed.
My pledge is to go and watch this movie in the cinema. Yes, I'll have watched it by then, I have the rip, and no way on earth I'll be able to keep myself from watching it before release, but I will go and see it in the cinema anyway. These guys are making an awesome set of movies, and whether or not you like their business model ( hint: I don't ), they won't make them at all anymore if there's no money, which will be a greater loss.
TL;DR: Pirate the movie if you want, but please go watch it in the cinema/buy it on dvd anyway. They'll take a revenue hit from this leak, and that might prevent a number 4.
