According to the suit, Tarantino did not consult beforehand with Miramax, which still owns the rights to the director’s classic

Quentin Tarantino
Quentin Tarantino has been sued by television company Miramax who accused the filmmaker of copyright infringement by selling Non-Fungible Tokens (NFT) based on the screenplay for Pulp Fiction (1994).
Tarantino announced the sale at a crypto-art convention in New York earlier this month. “I’m excited to be presenting these exclusive scenes from Pulp Fiction to fans,” he said. The plan is to auction off the NFT based on excerpts from Tarantino’s original handwritten script for the film, accompanied by commentary. The NFT is pitched as “secret,” meaning that its contents will be viewable exclusively by the owner.
