Actor Bruce Willis Countersues Production Company

On Thursday, the actor Bruce Willis filed a countersuit against the movie producers that are accusing him of breach of contract for backing out of a film project. Willis is accusing the producers of the film "Three Stories About Joan" of failing to demonstrate that they had full funding for the project by an agreed-upon deadline. Willis is seeking $8.7 million in compensation against two dozen defendants.

Last week, the producers of the film sued him for $4 million and accused him of quiting as the director of the film without notice, thus violating his contract.
