Warner Bros. Wins Dismissal of ‘Superman’ Foreign Copyright Suit
Warner Bros. has won the dismissal of a lawsuit challenging its copyright to 'Superman' in the U.K. and other territories.
In a ruling on Thursday, U.S. District Judge Jesse Furman held that the court has no authority to address the estate’s rights under foreign laws. The state suit seeks an injunction that could, in theory, interfere with the July 11 release of “Superman,” the franchise reboot directed by James Gunn and starring David Corenswet. Peary’s lawyer, Marc Toberoff, previously sought a federal injunction that would block the film’s release in the U.K., Canada, Australia and Ireland unless the Shuster estate were compensated.
