A $105 million lawsuit is brewing as a production company and filmmaker slam Netflix for allegedly losing an unreleased spy thriller starring Nicolas Cage, Ben Kingsley, and Ron Perlman — a film whose value hinges on exclusivity. The claim: an unencrypted master copy was handed over to Netflix for screening, with instructions to wipe it — but the drive vanished from Netflix’s office. Plaintiffs argue the loss shattered the film’s market potential, risking free online leaks and killing its commercial value. Netflix counters it’s not liable for a drive delivered without industry-standard security, even offering to monitor for piracy. For now, all sales and marketing are on hold — and the stakes couldn’t be higher.
