NEW YORK — Academy Award winner Michael Douglas and his ex-wife’s lawyers traded accusations of greed over earnings from the actor’s reprise as the avaricious Gordon Gekko in “Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps.”
“It’s a sham,” Michael Douglas’s attorney, Marilyn Chinitz, told a New York judge Tuesday.
Diandra Douglas cited their 1998 settlement, which gives her the right to 50 percent of the proceeds from work he did during their marriage — and, she says, anything related to those projects.
The attorney for the 65-year-old actor argued that didn’t include new movies such as “Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps,” which is set to open Sept. 24. Bloomberg News
