A New York attorney has filed a bizarre lawsuit accusing Ben Affleck and Matt Damon of stalking and harassing her to use private details of her life in their work by bugging her home.
Court documents obtained by DailyMail.com accuse Affleck and Damon of not only bugging the woman’s home but also hacking her devices, leaving her in fear she would be raped or kidnapped.
The lawsuit claims that her identity and personal experiences were used to develop SNL skits at the time Affleck was dating a producer Lindsay Shookus, and as well as in films produced by Harvey Weinstein.
She claims not to know when she became an ‘unwitting participant’ in their simulation, according to the suit filed in New York Supreme Court on Thursday, under the Adult Survivors Act.
Affleck’s brother, Casey, his now wife Jennifer Lopez, actor Kevin Smith, Ryan Seacrest and Weinstein are all accused of playing a part in the bizarre allegations.
She claims that work released in 2023 includes art which contains a reproduction of her ‘nude’, which she identified by a scar which is a ‘distinguishing characteristic’ of hers.
The action has been taken against Dimension Films, Disney, Lionsgate, Warner Bros and Paramount pictures, accusing them of being negligent and allowing the plagiarism and harassment to take place.

She doesn’t realize there are hundreds of thousands of women replicating those same experiences just in her city?

The 2024 release of their movie "Paranoid New York Lawyer" isn't going to help their defense.

Sounds like Al Capp vs Joan Baez.
Capp prevailed, as I recall.

This lawsuit has at least as much validity as the suits and charges against Donald Trump.

“Gone Girl” movie was based on the book by Gillian Flynnn. Is she being sued? (or her pockets aren’t deep enough?)

I liked it better when foreigners learned everything they needed to know from Hollywood rather than from The Daily Mail...
Well, at least the old Hollywood!

Poor woman is suffering from delusions of grandeur. I’ll speculate that she lives alone with her cats, watches movies, and drinks wine till she falls asleep on the couch.
