Excerpt:

The Oscar-winner sued Fiore Films in July 2011, claiming the filmmakers reneged on a deal for a $3 million role in the film and were offering him a lesser part in the project and a lower payday. Pesci's attorney Jessica Trotter confirmed Monday that a settlement had been reached in the case but said she could not provide any details. Michael Froch, an attorney for Fiore Films, said he could only confirm the case had been dismissed. Pesci's lawsuit stated the actor gained 30 pounds in anticipation of playing a childhood friend and enforcer of crime boss John Gotti Sr. The film, "Gotti: In the Shadow of My Father," has not started filming. John Travolta has been cast in the biopic as Gotti Sr. Last month, he told "Extra" that he hopes the film will get made this year.

Key:

  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
