they want to basically eliminate the backend via Plus. eas(ier) to do with writers/directors. to the extent there are star actors left . . .

Posted by: cake boss! (a.k.a mickpix) on Jul 29, 11:06 in response to notfabio's post It'll undoubtedly be settled before going to trial, but...

i guess we'll see!Ā  my sense is big agents have been getting a raft of panicked **** from all clients since the HBO Max decision was announced. the real fight will be over how much leverage the ScarJos of the world still have to squeeze out comparable front-end payments if studios are intent on pursuing the shortened window/day-and-date strategy

HAHAHAHA WSJ - Scarlett Johansson Sues Disney Over ‘Black Widow’ Streaming Release Moviesnob Jul 29, 10:26

Ms. Johansson’s representatives sought to renegotiate her contract... Disney and Marvel were unresponsive. {nm} Antibody Jul 29, 10:36

It'll undoubtedly be settled before going to trial, but word is that Disney is actually being the worst about working with talent on this. {nm} notfabio Jul 29, 11:01

She can sue because she's done. Will Emma Stone refuse to do Cruella 2 unless they renegotiates? {nm} Antibody Jul 29, 11:08

They can always go the Robin Williams Aladdin route and give her a Picasso as a make good. notfabio Jul 29, 11:09

more importantly, it took everyone a few weeks, but now that they've done the math they know day and date doesnt work {nm} Moviesnob Jul 29, 11:14

like settling the ScarJo case, it's going to be a process of figuring out what the new front-end number is. especially an IP-driven studio cake boss! Jul 29, 11:24

I wonder if TROCK and EBLUN got compensated or are they just playing nice for now? {nm} Antibody Jul 29, 11:49

Their movie A) hasnt come out yet and B) isnt an MCU film Moviesnob Jul 29, 13:02

I'm sure their epresentatives know the numbers and how much backend they've expected to lose giving up theatrical exclusivity. {nm} Antibody Jul 29, 13:24

Considering it ScarJo's team several weeks to figure it out, I think you over-estimating their representatives {nm} Moviesnob Jul 29, 13:54

From their interviews, TROCK and EBLUN seem to be in on the decision to go day-n-date while SJOHA was not. {nm} Antibody Jul 29, 14:13

then you're right, they probably got PPPPPAAAAAAIIIIIIDDD and ScarJo didn't! {nm} Moviesnob Jul 29, 14:53

Belloni's latest suggests Blunt didnt get paid and she is waiting for the results to come in {nm} Moviesnob Jul 29, 19:36

Ex. 989 that “talent” problems are only real when they happen to the stars (it was easy to buy off the writers/directors) cake boss! Jul 29, 10:41
