The email and Whatsapp messages reveal that Green called one producer a ‘f****** moron” and the financial backers “a***holes”. White Lantern is defending her claim, alleging that the actress’s conduct was unreasonable and in breach of her contractual obligations so she is not entitled to her fee. According to their pleading, the producer and financier SMC allege Green had no intention of completing the production and they are counterclaiming for millions in losses allegedly caused by Green’s conduct.Īs part of its evidence, White Lantern will be leaning into messages sent by Green which it unearthed via a court-ordered discovery process. The actress’s most recent pleading lays bare her breach of contract claim against the producers, including various concerns about the “disorganised and shambolic” pre-production and that the initial budget of €10M was halved and so became a “hopelessly inadequate amount” to make the film.
