Two South Florida officers sue Ben Affleck and Matt Damon over The Rip
Miami-Dade sheriff’s deputies Jonathan Santana and Jason Smith sued Ben Affleck and Matt Damon in federal court, saying the Netflix film The Rip used real-case details and harmed their reputations. The complaint says the movie’s depiction of South Florida officers finding millions of dollars inside a house mirrors the deputies’ real-life actions and portrays them as 'dirty cops.' Santana and Smith are seeking legal relief for reputational and professional damage tied to the film’s portrayal. The case could influence how Hollywood adapts criminal investigations and the legal exposure filmmakers face when fictionalizing real law-enforcement events.
Two South Florida police officers claim Ben Affleck and Matt Damon's recent action thriller "The Rip" used too many real-life details in its fictionalized narrative, causing harm to the officers' personal and professional reputations.
Davey20This isn't helping their reputation at all
Peter Doubt11If you don't want to appear on the front page, be ethical in your deeds FAFO - no case
JJDiane 🐝10These claims will totally help.
BootHillBossanova5I know they're hoping for a settlement to avoid a trial, but discovery and forcing these clowns (the cops, not Ben and Matt) to disprove the narrative on the record will be fun.
rabagast5don't make me side with ben affleck and matt damon, come on.
Áine ☽𖤐☾5Was there some shortage of cop movies?
Attention seeking behavior ya think? Hey guys, not everything is about you
ExOctopus3There's "Florida Man", and then there's "Florida Cop"...
🌙 𝕹𝖎𝖙𝖊-𝕺𝖜𝖑🦉2Uh, ‘The Rip’? I’m sure all 27 people that watched it don’t care.
red sky at morning2So did Jonathan Santana and Jason Smith file lawsuits against ACTUAL CORRUPT COPS, whose actions made them look like corrupt cops, as-well? WHY ARE COPS SO f'ing STUPID????
