Two South Florida police officers are suing Ben Affleck and Matt Damon's production company, Artists Equity, over their film "The Rip." The officers claim the movie, which was inspired by a real 2016 drug trafficking case, used too many specific details from their investigation, harming their reputations. While the production company argues the film is fictional and states this in its credits, the officers contend that the inclusion of real case details creates the impression that the characters are based on them.
