Amber Heard suing London Fields producer over secret body double nude scene
The long, tortured saga of adapting Martin Amis’ London Fields into a movie continues to be long and tortured, with yet another lawsuit inspired by its difficult production now popping up. In 2015, director Matthew Cullen sued the producers for allegedly attempting to add “revisionary elements” to his movie like “incendiary imagery evoking 9/11 jumpers edited against pornography,” as well as for failing to pay him. That lawsuit prevented the film from having its premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival that year, and in 2016, producer Christopher Hanley filed countersuits against Cullen and star Amber Heard for allegedly trying to undermine the film by publicly disparaging it and for refusing to participate in promotional events like the Toronto premiere.
