M. Night Shyamalan Begins Trial for $81 Million Copyright Lawsuit Over ‘Servant’
M. Night Shyamalan, Apple TV+, and the creators of 'Servant' began trial over a $81 million copyright lawsuit filed by director Francesca Gregorini.
On Tuesday, the case seeking $81 million went to trial in Riverside, California and a set of jurors received a binge-watching assignment as part of their duties. The mother, portrayed by Lauren Ambrose, is consumed by grief to the point of delusion after replacing the baby with a reborn doll she now believes to be alive.
