COSTNER SETTLES TAMING BEN TAYLOR LAWSUIT
Actor/director KEVIN COSTNER has settled a breach of contract lawsuit he filed in 2005 against a production company over the film TAMING BEN TAYLOR. The Oscar winner sued Ascendant Pictures after the firm pulled out of their contract to make the film with Costner in the lead role. The 53-year-old The Bodyguard star argued the lost project had cost him about $8 million (GBP4 million) in earnings and the case was due to be heard in court on Wednesday (05Mar08). However, the two parties came to an out-of-court agreement on Monday (03Mar08), according to Costner's lawyer William Bossen. Details of the settlement have not been released.
