Tommy Lee Jones Sues Paramount

nocountry1 In last year’s No Country for Old Men, Tommy Lee Jones played a sheriff chasing after a man who was chasing after some money. Well, apparently, now Jones is chasing after some money — specifically, from Paramount Pictures.

It turns out that the contract between Jones, Paramount and its subsidiary, N.M. Classics, Inc. contained two errors that may have prevented him from making upwards of $10 million in the wake of the film’s success.

Jones wants an auditor to go through their books and figure out just how much he’s owed. No formal comment from either side yet, but hey, if he’s owed some money, he should get it.

    Jeanne – Same here. His turn as the sheriff in “No Country” is my favorite role so far. I have “In the Valley of Elah” sitting here, but haven’t watched it yet.
