According to the crew of the film "Chot don" shared on the afternoon of August 4, the original female lead of the film was Miss Thuy Tien. However, the crew did not choose the beauty queen to play Hoang Linh because of her reputation at that time.
It is known that Miss Thuy Tien had to audition twice to get this role. After Thuy Tien was arrested and prosecuted, the film crew was forced to replace her image in the hope of bringing the film to the theater.
At the press screening, the crew also responded to whether using AI to replace Thuy Tien's image would cause the producer to have legal problems or not?
The legal representative of the film crew said that when the producer decided to change Thuy Tien's image to AI technology, the crew considered all legal factors, especially factors related to the contract that the producer signed with Thuy Tien.
"In contracts regulated by the Civil Law and the Cinema Law, the producer has full authority to use part or all of the image, or not to use Ms. Thuy Tien's image in any case" - the legal representative of the film crew shared.
The legal representative of the film crew also added that the contracts signed with Thuy Tien contained constraints on maintaining image and professional ethics.
Therefore, Thuy Tien is violating the producer, not that the producer has any violations.
"I am sure Ms. Thuy Tien does not have legal authority to complain to the producer, but only has the opposite direction" - this legal representative added.
