Why the ‘Blair Witch’ actors want their due
The Blair Witch Project was one of those films that took the world by storm. With a tiny budget of $35k-$60k, this indie film turned into a $248 million franchise! But here's the plot twist: the actors who made it happen received only a $300k buyout each. Fast forward to today, with Lionsgate and Blumhouse announcing a relaunch of the franchise, and the original cast is asking for their fair share. A public letter to Lionsgate calls for retroactive and future compensation, consultation on upcoming projects, and a $60,000 grant for indie filmmakers. Talk about a horror story, right? 👀🔪
Their story is a cautionary tale for any creator. Whether you're an indie filmmaker, a musician, or an inventor, it's crucial to protect your work and understand your rights. The Blair Witch actors are fighting for what union representation might've provided, had they not been 'starry-eyed' unknowns. Let's hope they get the justice they deserve. Who's with them? 🙌"
