The Hollywood actor and producer Leonardo DiCaprio was sued. Reason: slander! If the lawyers of the actor can not prove his innocence, the star of the film "Titanic" and "Survivor" will have to part with several million dollars.
Who has encroached on the capital of the magnificent DiCaprio? Andrew Green is a Wall Street broker whose biography was taken as the basis for creating the image of a minor character named Nikki Koscoff (played by PJ Byrne). Mr. Green was a friend and colleague of the main character of the film, the "great and terrible" Jordan Belfort, whose image was embodied by Leonardo DiCaprio on the screen.
Greene argues that no one asked him permission to use the biography. What has happened is a certain character "degenerate" and "criminal".
All the scenes in the film, in which the character PJ Byrne takes part, spoil the reputation of the plaintiff, they are false and implausible.

Paying for a lie
The plaintiff demands a serious compensation for moral damage - $ 15 million. He started the litigation with the producers of the project, among them is Oscar-winner Leonardo DiCaprio.
From the film crew, the press failed to receive comments when the court session is also still unknown.
Recall that the notorious film was released in 2013. He received warm reviews from critics and collected an impressive cashier - about $ 400 million. Leonardo DiCaprio was awarded the Golden Globe, and the film received as many as 5 Oscar nominations.
