- Major Hollywood financier TSG Entertainment is suing Disney over claims they manipulated distribution and withheld hundreds of millions in profits.
- TSG alleges Disney engaged in shady accounting practices like charging excessive distribution fees to streaming platforms and partners.
- TSG claims shortened theatrical windows and streaming deals impacted their ability to sell stakes in films they invested billions in.
