Donald Sutherland Memoir Dispute: Penguin Random House Sues Production Company

Penguin Random House is suing Donald Sutherland's production company, McNichol Pictures, for failing to deliver the completed manuscript for his memoir, "Made Up, Yet Still True", before his death.

Lawsuit Filed Over Sutherland’s Memoir

Penguin Random Residence has actually taken legal action against McNichol Pictures Inc.– the Florida-based production company Sutherland founded in 2012– for failing to provide the completed manuscript for “Made Up, Yet Still True,” in Manhattan federal court.

Previous Range editor Peter Bart, a Paramount executive, declared in his publication, “Infamous Gamers: A Tale of Movies, the Crowd, (and Sex),” asserts an angry Warren Beatty– Christie’s guy at the time– flew to Los Angeles and demanded the scene be cut.

“As one of the most enduring actors in Hollywood, Donald Sutherland has made an indelible mark on the sector because his life-altering function in’M * A * S * H’ catapulted him right into the public eye almost sixty years back,” it continued.

Early Career and Controversial Scenes

In the 1973 scary movie “Don’t Look Currently,” Sutherland had a visuals sex scene with British starlet Julie Christie, which earned the flick an X ranking in the UK. Rumors were widespread the sex scene was too realistic to have actually been substitute.

“The long-awaited, bracingly honest, and entirely uncertain individual tale of film legend Donald Sutherland, sharing his deep enthusiasm for acting, his intense journey with success and loss, and every wild story in between,” the release spurted.

Memoir Details and Submission

Before Kiefer Sutherland’s papa died from prostate cancer cells in his Miami home on June 20, 2024, a draft duplicate of the memoir was submitted to the Crown Posting Team, a Penguin Random House subsidiary, according to the violation of agreement suit.
