'Servant' Dituduh Plagiat, Apple dan Produser M. Night Shyamalan Digugat

Gugatan ini ditujukan kepada Apple TV+, kreator tayangan Tony Basgallop, produser M. Night Shyamalan, dan produser lain dari serial ini.

Pihak penggugat juga menyayangkan sikap tergugat yang menyebut Servant sudah dalam proses pengembangan jauh sebelum The Truth About Emanuel dibuat.

“Defendants have arrogantly dismissed Ms. Gregorini’s protests by vaguely claiming that Servant was in development long before Emanuel was made, and that any similarity is a coincidence. Indeed, Mr. Shyamalan and Mr. Basgallop implausibly claim they have never seen Emanuel–apparently not even curious enough to watch after hearing Ms. Gregorini’s objections. Worse, Apple has brought stonewalling to a new level by simply referring inquiries to Mr. Shyamalan’s lawyer (who in turns says he cannot speak for Apple).”

Pihaknya juga menginginkan Servant tidak didistribusikan lebih luas setelah ini. (*)
