Warren Beatty Doesn't Want to Let Go of Dick Tracy

Translate Into:

He can't let go!

Warren Beatty has filed a lawsuit to keep the film and TV rights to the character Dick Tracy all to himself.

Just in case you forgot (or weren't old enough to remember) Beatty played the cartoon strip character in a movie with Madonna back in 1990.

He's had a license since 1985 to do stuff with the Dick Tracy character from the owners, Tribune Co.

In November of 2006, Warren promised Tribune that within 2 years he'd have projects revolving around Dick in the works once again and if not, Tribune could cancel the Dick loan deal.

Anyway, just before the 2 year mark, Madonna's former co-star started work on a Dick Tracy TV special.

This apparently looked like a lame last minute scramble to the Tribune folks because they moved to terminate the Dick deal with Beatty.

In legal records that just went public on Friday, the actor hit back and asked for a declaration that his work on the Dick Tracy TV special precludes Tribune from taking back the rights to the property.

What a mouthful!

Sheesh. After all this craziness Beatty better do some really good shizz with Dick.
