Who favorited?B.I.G. Filmmakers Sued for $20 million
by on July 14th, 2008
William Troy McCune, aka 'Supreme', is suing filmmakers for $20 Million in damages for his unauthorized appearance in the 2007 movie "Notorious B.I.G.: Bigger Than Life". The movie , which was a documentary on the late hip-hop great, Notorious BIG, is at the forefront of this lawsuit. McCune claims that he was never contacted or gave permission for the filmmakers to use video footage of him in a freestyle battle on the street in Brooklyn. In the lawsuit he states that he suffered "irreparable harm, mental distress, and disturbance of his peace of mind".
And although the battle happened over 14 years ago and shows BIG getting the better of him, McCune says that's not the reason for the lawsuit. He claims his suit is soley based on the fact that the production company used that video without his permission.
