How many of you know of Sophia Stewart's ongoing battle with the makers of The Matrix and Terminator? The suit is filed against the Wachowski Brothers, Joel Silver and Warner Brothers
She filed a suit against the makers of the movie stating they had used her copyrighted work, The Third Eye, to make a number of movies.
It looks as though she may be a winner and if she receives a payout will become one of the wealthiest persons alive.
Stewart filed her case in 1999, after viewing the Matrix, which she felt had been based on her manuscript, "The Third Eye," copyrighted in 1981. In the mid-eighties Stewart had submitted her manuscript to an ad placed by the Wachowski Brothers, requesting new sci-fi works.
Anyone known of this?
