Two fans of Ana de Armas are suing Universal, alleging they were duped into renting the 2019 movie Yesterday because the actress appeared in the trailer but not the final cut of the film.
As a result of this revelation, the two film fans are seeking to recoup at least $5m in compensation on behalf of the affected viewers in their two home states who paid to watch Yesterday, claiming that Universal Pictures used de Armas' "fame, radiance and brilliance" to promote the film and attract sales by including her scenes in the trailer.
de Armas' fame, radiance and brilliance to promote the film by including her scenes in the movie trailers advertising Yesterday," reads the lawsuit, which also references a song that was included in the trailer but cut from the film.
