The legal dust is far from settled in Hollywood as the team behind the upcoming action-thriller Canary Black has responded sharply to a lawsuit filed by British actress Kate Beckinsale, dismissing her claims as entirely “meritless.”

Beckinsale, known for her roles in Underworld and Pearl Harbor, recently filed a suit alleging breach of contract and wrongful treatment during the production of Canary Black. In her legal complaint, she accuses the producers of failing to meet their obligations and mishandling critical aspects of her involvement in the film.

However, the producers aren’t backing down.

In a statement made available to Wafricnews, the production team behind Canary Black rejected Beckinsale’s claims, stating:

“We strongly deny the allegations brought forward by Ms. Beckinsale. Her lawsuit is without merit and misrepresents the facts surrounding the production.”

While the full details of the legal battle remain under wraps, the response from the producers makes it clear: they intend to fight back in court and defend the integrity of the film and its team.

Canary Black, a high-stakes espionage thriller, stars Beckinsale in a lead role. The film has been generating buzz for its action-packed plot and big-budget visuals. But with a legal storm brewing behind the scenes, its release could be overshadowed by courtroom drama.

As the dispute unfolds, Wafricnews will continue to track developments in what could become one of the year’s most talked-about legal showdowns in the entertainment world.
