Bond girl Eva Green told the High Court today that her ‘Frenchness’ was to blame for abusive messages she sent to bosses of a doomed sci-fi film.
Confronted with a message calling the director and producer of A Patriot "weak and stupid", Eva Green blamed it on her "Frenchness coming out".
Giving evidence in a £4m legal battle over the film, she said she didn’t ‘care about the money’ and that she lives ‘to make good films’. The 42-year-old star, famed for her role alongside Daniel Craig in 007 film Casino Royale, claims she's owed a $1m fee after A Patriot was shut down in October 2019.
The cost of the case, which is being brought against production company White Lantern Films, is now thought to exceed $4 million.
