Rome-based actors collective Artisti 7607, which manages rights and residuals for thousands of actors and dubbing artists, is taking Netflix to court for failing to provide adequate data to set payments.
The group said the aim of the action in a Rome court was “to obtain adequate and proportionate compensation due by law to its artists”.
Artisti 7607, which launched in 2010 and began its collecting activities in 2013, said it has been trying to get Netflix to engage on the issue for eight years but that attempts to obtain the data necessary to determine the compensation due to its artists under European and national legislation had been fruitless.
“We have been facing downward market practices for some time but by holding firm positions in everyone’s interest, we have managed to obtain the right remuneration,” said Artisti 7607 president Cinzia Mascoli.
“Many artists understand what we are doing and continue to choose us.

The criminal sexual assault case against Paul Haggis in Italy could be coming to an end, with prosecutors in the Southern Italy city Brindisi, where Haggis was charged with sexual assault, requesting that the case be dismissed.
The case dates back to June 2022, when the writer-director was booked and placed under house arrest following the complaint of a British woman who was attending the Allora Film Fest with the director. According to the charges, Haggis allegedly abused the woman for three days (June 12-15, 2022) in the lodgings they shared. As a result of the complaint, the director was kept under preventative house arrest from June 19 to July 4, a decision later revoked by Preliminary Investigation Judge Vilma Gilli once it was determined that there was no risk of recurrence.
The Public Prosecutor’s Office in Brindisi has told local media that the investigation could not establish that the relationship was nonconsensual.
