Quentin Tarantino’s lawyer rips “ham-fisted” Miramax for NFT PulpFiction suit: “Miramax is wrong – plain and simple,” Bryan Freedman tells Deadline
Yesterday, the Bill Block run company took its one time Golden boy to court over the seven “exclusive scenes” from the 1994 picture that he said he plans to put in the digital art market. Citing breach-of-contract, copyright infringement and more, the jury trial seek lawsuit to prove its point also dropped Tarantino’s 1993 contract with Miramax in the docket as Exhibit A — and that really pissed off Tarantino and his heavyweight Beverly Hills lawyer.
The Oscar winner announced his foray into the digital art world at the NFT.NYC conference this month. No date has been laid down for the auctions, but we do know that Tarantino’s NFTs are set to be seven scanned digital copies of his handwritten original scripts with audio commentary. However, one cease-and-desist letter later, the company thatco-founded is looking for statutory damages and declaratory and injunctive relief in a jury trial.
“Left unchecked, Tarantino’s conduct could mislead others into believing Miramax is involved in his venture,” the suit states. “And it could also mislead others into believing they have the rights to pursue similar deals or offerings, when in fact Miramax holds the rights needed to develop, market, and sell NFTs relating to its deep film library.”
