posted on by Egan Loo
Three independent film producers — Kikou Kantai Dairugger XV (Mechanized Fleet Dairugger XV) television series, both of which feature teams that combine their mechanized units to form a robot.
The three producers allege that WEP and Charles Roven. For plaintiffs' part, Young told The Hollywood Reporter, "We want the movie to get made. We just want to make sure we're involved in some way and are compensated."
This new lawsuit is separate from the ongoing legal action between WEP and Toei over the rights to the project. As of this month, that earlier dispute is currently in mediation outside the courts. After various points during the last five years, WEP had been negotiating with Lionsgate, New Regency, and Relativity before Atlas signed its deal.
