| |||
Saturday, 31st Oct 2015, 2:51 PM IST Priyanka Chopra’s American TV series has landed into a legal issue. A lawsuit has been filed against the producer of the series Mark Gordon and his company claiming that the show has been stolen from a CNN documentary aired in 1999. The complaint has been filed by filmmakers Jamie Hellman, Barbara Leibovitz Hellman and business executive Paula Paizes. It states that Mark stole the idea from their documentary ‘Quantico: The Making Of An FBI Agent’. Paizes had bought the documentary to Mark and the ‘Quantico Project’ was initially intended to be made as a movie revolving around ‘a conspiracy inside the FBI Academy’. The filmmakers state, "The detailed knowledge of training techniques, lifestyle and terminology used in ‘Quantico’ could only have derived from the transcripts and notes obtained by Leibovitz and Hellman during their unprecedented access to FBI recruits for the Documentary, copies of which were retained by [Gordon]."
