Actress sues James Cameron over alleged Avatar likeness use
Q'orianka Kilcher sued James Cameron and The Walt Disney Company, accusing them of using her facial features without permission to design Neytiri in the Avatar films. Her complaint says Cameron first noticed Kilcher in an advertisement for Terrence Malick's 2005 film The New World, identified her by name, and pointed to her lower-face features as the basis for Neytiri's look. Kilcher, WHO made her acting debut at 14 as Pocahontas in The New World and has continued acting, is seeking damages for the alleged unauthorized use of her biometric facial features and profits from the Avatar franchise. The case could set legal precedent over using real people's biometric features in character design and affect how studios create, credit, and compensate for likenesses.
I was sort of laughing at the idea of someone watching Avatar with the big blue aliens and going, 'Wait a tick, that's me!,' but they actually cite a video where James Cameron identifies her by name and says "this is actually her . . . her lower face"
❀°。Der Siebenschläfer *.ﾟ✿ ⋆5There's an interview with a production designer from 2009, in which the designer says Cameron specifically told him to use the plaintiff's likeness (but the designer also says he used others including Mary J. Blige...) gizmodo.com/avatar-conce...
Rhett Derrick4🎶Can’t take my, can’t take my, no he can’t take my lower face🎶
I’m not a lawyer so I have no idea if this behavior gives Q’orianka Kilcher a case, but it’s another one for the James Cameron Behaves Like a Gross Blowhard file.
lousy smarch weather6Terrible guy who sometimes makes good action movies. The second thing is no longer good enough to excuse the first thing, sorry.
Ernest Luckman6yeah celebrity likeness rights do exist in the law (thanks to Vanna White). its pretty remarkable for him to say the quiet part loud.
Evelyn Waughluigi2Really solidifying my theory that the reason I find the avatar movies so annoying is because I find Cameron to be a deeply tiring man
