Stephen Baldwin Takes Kevin Costner to Court. And No, It’s Not a Movie

The Hollywood stars are battling in court over rights to an advanced environmental technology that was supposed to help clear the Gulf of Mexico after the 2010 BP oil spill.

It’s a story with Hollywood egos, environmental destruction, intrigue, legal complexity and betrayal. Just throw in a hot, dusty New Orleans courtroom and seersuckered lawyers arguing their case in a bayou drawl, and you’ve got yourself a John Grisham movie. If the ongoing legal battle between Stephen Baldwin and Kevin Costner weren’t reality, it would make a heck of a movie script.
