Actress Cindy Lee Garcia sues over Innocence of Muslims

39. Actually, someone down thread pointed out something pretty interesting...

First off, I have worked in the film industry for many years and had to deal with various production companies of one kind or another over that time (including my own) and as standard practice all actors and players have to sign a release form.

I posted them here...

That said, Bluenorthwest made a good point of basically saying, if the producer used a fake name on the release form, then the actor might have a case of misrepresentation.

So this whole thing and a case against the producer/director may come down to whether or not he falsified his name on a legal doc.

But as I wrote in another post in this thread, most low budget film companies rarely own little more than their production name. And if he filed his production company as an LLC, she won't get anything.

I think her best bet is a civil lawsuit.
