There is no doubt that with this spin-off, Ana de Armas will expand her community of fans, already very committed to her cause. Two years ago already, two fans who were rather upset with the Universal studio decided to go to great lengths to express their anger. In this case, the two moviegoers wanted to file a complaint for false advertising, considering themselves duped by the film’s trailer Yesterday by Danny Boyle. In this one, we can see the actress… although she is not present in the final version, incidentally available on Amazon Prime Video.
As fans of the actress, the two individuals did not hesitate to spend €3.99 to rent the film on Netflix’s competing platform. Their surprise was therefore total when they reached the end credits without having seen him even once on the screen. Judging that “ consumers did not receive the expected value of their rental or purchase “, the two fans demanded five million dollars in compensation… in vain. First on the side of the plaintiffs, the judge finally heard Universal’s arguments, invoking the First Amendment of the American Constitution in the context of the trailer broadcast. Eventually, the trial ended with an outcome that suits absolutely no one with a great loss of money, on one side or the other !
