Brendan Fraser Suing For 3 Million William Tell Paycheck

Fraser claims that he turned down other lucrative projects in order to avail himself to play William Tell, and that he’s owed more than $3 million in acting fees and additional damages. He’s suing producer Todd Moyer because of the producer’s alleged inability to keep the project on schedule. Moyer, though, tells a different story: So if the project is slated to start in the fall, why the dispute? Another comment from Moyer implies that it might be over a secondary aspect of production that Fraser is apparently displeased with: It’s not known if the Fraser’s “pay-or-play” clause extends to if the 3D project is amended to be a simple 2D one. But if anyone would have such a clause, it would be Brendan Fraser, who seems to genuinely love acting in front of green screens and just generally being in the middle of huge CGI nightmares. Hopefully, though, this will all be worked out and we’ll get to see Brendan Fraser shoot an apple off of someone’s head with an arrow – in 3D, if possible.
