Ana de Armas Fans Settle Lawsuit Over 'Yesterday' Trailer Misrepresentation

Two fans who sued Universal Pictures for false advertising after Ana de Armas was cut from the 'Yesterday' movie trailer have settled their lawsuit, ending a two-year legal battle.

Peter Rosza and Conor Woulfe sued Universal in 2022, claiming they were misled by the trailer featuring Ana de Armas, who was ultimately cut from the film.
A federal judge initially ruled that movie trailers are commercial speech and subject to false advertising laws, siding with the plaintiffs.
The terms of the settlement, reached after extensive legal proceedings, were not disclosed.
Both parties were reportedly unhappy with the outcome, with Universal criticizing the lawsuit as frivolous and costly.
The case highlighted the legal responsibilities of film studios in trailer advertising, setting a precedent for future advertising claims.
