Posted online

Actor Gerard Butler filed suit seeking backend compensation for 2013 action film “Olympus Has Fallen.”

Butler alleges he is owed at least $10 million.

“Producers have earned tens of millions of dollars from ‘Olympus,’ but refuse to pay Butler a penny of the grosses and profits promised to him in the parties’ agreement,” the lawsuit states. “Butler refuses to tolerate defendants’ misrepresentations and other wrongful conduct. Butler worked with defendants to create a highly successful movie franchise. He demands his fair share.”
