Two major Hollywood studios have filed separate lawsuits against the Hollywood actor, who they claim has leaked so-called screener copies of their movies to Internet. Warner Bros., a subsdiary of TimeWarner, sued several people, including the accused source of screener leaks, Hollywood actor Carmine Caridi, for leaking its recent movies "The Last Samurai" and "Mystic River".
According to Warner's lawsuit, Caridi received the screener copies of the movies from Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, as he is a long-time member of the organization, and then handed them to electrician from Illinois, Russell Sprague, who then made digital copies of the movies and placed them available on the Net.
In its separate lawsuit, Columbia, a subsdiary of Sony, has also sued Caridi for leaking its movies "Something's Gotta Give" and "Big Fish" to Net.
