Uwe Boll sues Billy Zane
Hollywood Reporter - 1st May 2008
Uwe Boll: Director
Uwe Boll has sued actor
Billy Zane in Los Angeles Superior Court, claiming he's owed at least $700,000 in revenues from the 2006 boxoffice flop "Bloodrayne."
Boll claims in the April 30 filing that
Zane was the one who suggested Romar Entertainment handle distribution of the film.
Zane and Romar principal James Schramm allegedly promised the film would open in 2,000 theaters and that a $10 million advance from
Boll would be used for advertising and promotion. But at least $900,000 was paid out to
Zane and Schramm and the movie opened in only 950 theaters,
Boll claims.
The film's budget was $25 million and brought in just under $4 million at the worldwide boxoffice.
