Hours after Scarlett Johansson filed a lawsuit against Disney, the company has fired back, slamming the #BlackWidow star’s breach of contract lawsuit for showing “callous disregard for the horrific and prolonged global effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.” bit.ly/3zGGq14 Image
“There is no merit whatsoever to this filing,” Disney said in a statement. The company minced no words arguing that they complied with Johansson’s contract, calling her legal filing “especially sad and distressing.” bit.ly/3zGGq14 Image
Earlier today, Johansson said that Disney’s decision to send the Marvel movie to Disney Plus at the same time it released in theaters cost her millions of dollars in backend compensation. bit.ly/3zGGq14 Image

#ReleaseTheAyerCut? David Ayer posted an emotional letter criticizing the studio cut of #SuicideSquad: “The studio cut is not my movie." bit.ly/3xc7aoC Image
“I put my life into Suicide Squad. I made something amazing – My cut is intricate and emotional journey with some ‘bad people’ who are shit on and discarded (a theme that resonates in my soul),” Ayer wrote. bit.ly/3xc7aoC ImageImage
"...My cut is not the 10 week director’s cut – It’s a fully mature edit by Lee Smith standing on the incredibly work by John Gilroy. It’s all Steven Price’s brilliant score, with not a single radio song in the whole thing," he added. bit.ly/3xc7aoC Image

The new filing comes the same week that Spears’ new attorney, Mathew Rosengart, officially petitioned to suspend and remove Spears’ father from the conservatorship. bit.ly/3f8fteE Image
