Zootopia Produced by Disney Sued for Copyright Infringement

2017/03/30

Gary L. Goldman, who is a senior screenwriter, took Disney to the court, stating that Zootopia making a hit in 2016 copied his idea. His lawsuit states a series of evidence proving that there are substantial similarities between his project and last year's animated blockbuster in the roles designing, theme, lines and even the film’s name. He pitched his ''Zootopia" concept to Disney in 2000 and 2009 and Disney didn’t adopt his project for two times. This lawsuit indicates that Disney steals ideas from other people for a long term, and the Zootopia case is only one of the examples.
