Ana de Armas Fans Get Let Down in Court Over Misleading Trailer Case
- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
Two fans of Ana de Armas, Peter Michael Rosza and Conor Woulfe, last year won the ability to take Universal to court over a “misleading trailer” for the film Yesterday. The trailer they saw featured de Armas, but the movie they watched did not. The main argument they gave was: are trailers artistic expression, or commercials?
The U.S. District Judge Stephen Wilson agreed that trailers might have had artistic merit but the ultimate goal was one of commercial pursuit; to convince an audience to purchase something. Under this ruling, Wilson allowed the suit to go forward. However, Wilson has now ruled that while the argument to bring the suit is valid, the two plaintiffs don’t really have a strong enough case, and has dismissed the suit.
