His actual name might be out, but the company he created is not out of the next installment of this superhero franchise. I am pretty sure this foreign born A list mostly movie actress is not aware of this behind the scenes trickery.
He's scum but I'm sure he still has power and influence in those circles and behind the scenes to helm the direction of the next WW movie to make sure it's equally successful. So I agree re optics.
@ Smalls & Khaleesi - shell companies, change the name of the company, incorporate a new one, "reinvest" through a VC...and those are just off the top of my head.
Brett Ratner/Gal Gadot. She does not want him tarnishing the Wonder Woman brand with his current mess. Cannot blame her one bit.
ReplyDeleteAgree. She said no way will she be in that movie if ratso is involved. And she has the juice now to pull that off!!
DeleteGal Gadot. How could she not know?
ReplyDeleteIt's more about the optics of not having Ratner connected to the movie. I don't think many people do a deep dive into who owns the production company.

ReplyDeleteI thought she wanted RatPac-Dune Entertainment off the movie, as well? I don't see how she can't know this.
ReplyDeleteSame, @Smalls.
ReplyDeleteAgree w/ Nutty - That's Hollywood. Everything they do is an act. Nothing authentic about any of them or anything they do publicly.

ReplyDeleteBingo, Bay Area Girl...nothing new here by any stretch of the imagination.
ReplyDeleteNutty = spot on.
