JAKARTA - Warner Bros. decision to screen 17 films on HBO Max caused a negative response. After Christopher Nolan, this time there is Legendary Entertainment, the film producers of Dune and Godzilla vs. Kong.
Launching Variety today, Tuesday, December 8, this Legendary Entetrainment has the potential to sue Warner Bros. over broadcast rights if they can't reach an agreement. Most likely, a lawsuit will be issued this week.
It is known that the film Dune and Godzilla vs. Kong are two Warner Bros. films produced by Legendary Entertainment. The two films are among 17 films that will hit theaters and HBO Max simultaneously in 2021.
Legendary Entertainment provided funding for the Dune film production of 175 million US dollars while for Godzilla vs. Kong, Legendary Entertainment contributed as much as 160 million US dollars.
Legendary Entertainment feels that Warner Bros. intentionally did not notify producers of changes to its release strategy. This was also agreed by Nolan, where he said that film activists and players should participate in discussing changes in releases.
In addition, HBO Max is reportedly competing with Netflix to acquire the rights to broadcast Godzilla vs. Kong. But WarnerMedia under Warner Bros won the competition and was released on HBO Max.
Godzilla vs Kong will air on May 21, 2021, then Dune is scheduled to release on October 1, 2021.
Legendary Entertainment and Warner Bros. did not want to comment publicly on this case.
