Warren Beatty Eyes Dick Tracy, Sues Tribune Media For Rights
Warren Beatty has sued Tribune Media Services for $30 millon, saying it had violated an agreement to give the actor rights to make another movie featuring comic character Dick Tracy.
Beatty, in a 1985 deal, gained the rights to play Tracy in the color-saturated movie of that name, made by Disney, that also featured Madonna. It got mixed reviews in 1990 but made over $100 million. Beatty was required to give it back at the company's request, under several conditions and following a two-year notification process.
