SEAGAL sued over MORE lack of effort!
Most people on this site are aware of the effort (or lack of it) that STEVEN SEAGAL has been putting into his recent movies. I've just come across this article (from IMDB, so it may not be a 100% true) but all the signs are there. As much as i'd never wish harm on SEAGAL, i do hope that action is taken against him, to stop this 'phoning in' of performances, in his movies of late? We all know he can do much better, hopefuly this legal action, will make him see how much he's shortchanging the fans? This could lead to better movies, for the fans, in the longrun.
"Actor Steven Seagal sued for $14 million by production company!!
Associated Press
LOS ANGELES - Actor Steven Seagal has been sued for $14 million for allegedly delaying production on two movies.
Seagal allegedly showed up late and left early while shooting "Today You Die" and "Mercenary," routinely rewrote and changed scripts on the set, and brought an entourage that interfered with film crews, according to the Superior Court suit filed Monday.
The lawsuit was filed by production company Kill Master Productions and its sales agent, Nu Image.
The 54-year-old is best known for his martial-arts moves in films like "Under Siege" and "Exit Wounds." A message left with Gerry Harrington, who has served as his manager, was not immediately returned Wednesday night.
In one instance, Seagal allegedly arrived 45 minutes late while filming "Today You Die" and left the location 3 1/2 hours early.
Because of his actions, planned scenes were never shot, leaving the film with a "material and irreparable problem with story logic," according to the lawsuit, which also seeks unspecified damages"
