Dan Ackerman, editor-in-chief of the tech news website Gizmodo, has filed a lawsuit in Manhattan federal court accusing Apple, the Tetris Company and others of adapting his book about the video game Tetris into a feature film without his permission.
Ackerman claims he sent his book The Tetris Effect in 2016 to the Tetris Company, which allegedly copied it for the movie and threatened to sue him if he pursued his own film or television spin-offs.
The Tetris film premiered on the Apple TV platform in March. Ackerman asked the court for damages equaling at least 6% of the film’s US$80m production budget.
