The French actress, who played Vesper Lynd in James Bond thriller 'Casino Royale,' is suing producers for a $1 million fee she says she is owed for 'A Patriot.'

Bond girl Eva Green, pictured in Casino Royale with Daniel Craig, is at the High Court in a legal battle over the demise of a £4 million film project

The High Court head last week that Ms Green had claimed Mr Seal, an executive producer, was planning to make a 'cheap B movie', describing him as 'the devil' and 'evil'.

Mr Pringle said in a message that he, Ms Green and producer Adam Merrifield were discussing if they 'wish to proceed with the new structure', but added: 'As of right now, obviously all three of us would rather eat tumours'.

The barrister said that in exchanges with her agent and the film's director, Ms Green also branded production manager Terry Bird as a 'f****** moron', and local crew members as 'sh***y peasants... from Hampshire'.

However, Ms Green's barrister Edmund Cullen KC said that the legal battle was 'designed to paint my client as a diva to win headlines and damage her reputation'.
