CAMERON SUED OVER TERMINATOR 2 SCRIPT! "T2" scenes stolen from "The Minotaur"? Reported By: René de Jong Saturday, April 13, 2002 Reported by IMDB.com: Over 10 years after the movie was released, someone still wants a piece of the Terminator pie. Director James Cameron is being sued for allegedly stealing ideas for his hit sci-fi sequel Terminator 2. An Australian couple claim the Oscar-winning director owes them damages and credits on the 1991 movie, alleging he stole from a script for a proposed movie sent to Hollywood producers in 1987. Filia and Constantinos Kourtis have filed a suit in America's federal court which alleges the Arnold Schwarzenegger flick borrows heavily from a script for a proposed movie called The Minotaur which was touted around Hollywood. Mr. Kourtis says Cameron called him while he was in Los Angeles in 1989 and told him he "loved the project" and said his agent would be calling him "soon." The pair were then shocked to see echoes of the script in Terminator 2 as well as earlier Cameron flick The Abyss. ---------- |
