You write a new screenplay, and with your standing in Hollywood you are able to produce it yourself and maintain full creative control. It pays off. The screenplay resonates with other women who have been in oppressive workplace relationships. You win an oscar but it’s not all rainbows and butterflies.
Your ex sues you for defamation of character and wins. Did it have anything to do with the fact that he was in Pi Epsilon at USC with the judge? Probably. You have to give your ex half of the revenue of the film. And partial credit for the story. Your content is no longer yours. Now your name is big enough though that you are getting offered huge projects. Then it happens. Your agent drops you. He can’t deal with the backlash of the court case. The country is divided on their opinion of you.
