Bradley Cooper and di rector Todd Phillips are facing a lawsuit over their new movie War Dogs. Efraim Diveroli is suing Cooper, 41, who is a producer on the film, Phillips and executives at Warner Bros, claiming they had unauthorised access to his
“Once a Gunrunner” manuscript and could have used elements from it in the film, reported a website.
The movie centres on a pair of drug users who become arms dealers after they win a hefty amount contract to supply American allies with weapons in Afghanistan.
The screenplay is reportedly based on a 2011 Rolling Stone article and a subsequent book written by Guy Lawson.
In 2008, he was accused of infringing upon the terms of his contract with the US Government and being in violation of a pre-existing arms embargo. (PTI)
