Woody Allen settles $68m lawsuit with Amazon over movie deal
AFP Woody Allen has reached a legal settlement with Amazon Studios after it abandoned a four-film deal. Under the movie deal, signed in 2016, Allen received a $10m advance payment. Shortly before Amazon withdraw from the agreement, Allen reportedly expressed sympathy for movie producer Harvey Weinstein, who was accused of sexually assaulting dozens of women. Amazon Studios said its decision to terminate the deal was justified because Allen's comments undermined its financial security. In response, Allen said Amazon was fully aware of Dylan Farrow's accusation when the deal was signed.
