We all had the opportunity to “fish” with him. trailer movie and maybe that 1-2 minute preview made it much more interesting to our eyes than it actually was.

But what happens when the trailer is so far from reality that is this misleading?

In this case, you will now be able to sue the respective film studio and demand compensation.

That’s exactly what they did Paul Michael Rose and Connor Wolf, which filed a lawsuit against Universal in January 2022 over a misleading trailer. In fact, the two rented a movie “Yesterday”, after they first saw their lover Ana De Armas in the trailer. But after they watched his whole movie Danny Boyle they were saddened to find that the actress was not in the final cut of the film, which eventually led them to sue the studio.

A few days ago the judge accepted part of the claim two men, and thus the respective procedures can proceed normally.

In turn, his legal representatives Universal claim it’s a trailer “artistic and expressive work” which should be protected by an appropriate amendment.

Judge Steven Wilson Of course, whoever already gave the green light to the pending lawsuit said in turn that “Universal is right that trailers require creativity and judgment in editing, but that creativity doesn’t make up for the trailer’s commercial nature. At its core, a trailer is an advertisement designed to sell a film by giving viewers a first glimpse of it.”

For reference, Ana de Armas was originally planned to appear in the film as a person of “special interest” to protagonist Jack Malik (played by Himes Patel), however, test audiences reacted negatively to the character of the Cuban actress, given that there was already an affair between the hero and Ellie Appleton (Lily James).
