Fuqua battles Universal over defunct film

Training Day director Antoine Fuqua is considering filing a breach of contract lawsuit against Universal bosses after being sacked from the now defunct gangster film Tru Blu for feuding with studio heads.

Universal has reportedly agreed to sign off $30m (€23.8m) on the gritty Denzel Washington film - based on the life of real-life drug kingpin Frank Lucas - rather than press on with the project.
