Eva Green and the White Lantern Studio filed to the court, demanding money payments. Last year, the studio launched a work on the scientific fiction thriller "Patriot". The main role of the captain of the border troops of a certain futuristic state Kate Jones was to play Eva Green. The director of the painting was Dan Pringle. Also on leading roles were approved by Helen Hunt and Charles Dance. But the film was never removed.
The suit of the actress claims that under the contract she should pay the fee regardless of what happens with the film, and requires 800 thousand pounds of Strolls registered in the contract (a little more than a million dollars). Plus payment of court costs.
The studio also accuses to face work on the actress. They declare that Green refused to work if its conditions for hiring additional staff will not be fulfilled, which would further increase the budget for 250 thousand pounds sterling. And this with a planned budget of 4 million would be too burdensome. Allegedly actress said, demanding the hiring of her personal assistants:
They can't work for less money, but I can't work without them.
Studio also requires lost profits in the amount of 100 million pounds sterling. Before that, they never had projects with such fees in cinemas. Lawyer Studios Max Mallin says:
Miss Green initially adhered to a course of behavior that demonstrated that she had no intention to complete the production of the film. Her demands were unreasonable, seriously distracted, detained and caused additional costs.
