According to a defense filing submitted to the court this week, Ritchie outright denied any allegations, including claims that Ritchie hired de Hara to write the RockNRolla sequel and that the film was set to be based on de Hara’s life. Ritchie’s claim also mentions that he paid de Hara £25,000 in 2006 under a “work for hire” agreement.
This agreement saw de Hara provide “anecdotes” and act “as a sounding board” for ideas while Ritchie wrote the sequel. Per the defense statement, “several” of those anecdotes did “influence aspects” of the final screenplay. Ritchie’s statement also says that he did discuss the possibility of turning RockNRolla into a trilogy, with de Hara and writer Martin Askew set to potentially receive credits, but no agreement was ever made.
