Another high profile lawsuit was filed this morning, with Gerard Butler (no relation) reportedly in process of suing Nu Image/Millennium Films for a reported $10 million owed for the 2013 film “Olympus Has Fallen.”
According to Variety, Butler’s suit alleges a producer had “understated domestic and foreign receipts by tens of millions of dollars and had failed to report $8 million that went to its own executives.”
So, in the grand scheme of things, this is a far more straight forward lawsuit than Scarlett Johansson vs. Disney, and the possible suit Emma Stone may be looking into.
The three “Has Fallen” films (a fourth one is reportedly on the way) have at present accumulated $523 million worldwide.
