“Tiger King” star Carole Baskin is suing Netflix for footage used in season two of the popular series.
–
It reports TMZ.
Carole Baskin is 58 years old, animal welfare activist and the woman behind the organization Big Cat Rescue.
The first season of “Tiger King” took a pandemic-shut down world by storm when it was launched on the streaming service Netflix.
Believes manufacturers have changed reality
Baskin is said to have put her foot down after the series producers of the sequel to the popular series have “teased her” and “changed reality”, according to herself.
In the lawsuit, she explains that the recordings used now are only unused material from the first season, and that Netflix uses these recordings to make it seem as if she has given new interviews to the sequel.
She also believes she is portrayed as a villain in the first season. In particular, she believes that the documentary made it appear as if she was to blame for the disappearance of her husband, Don Lewis.
Want to be removed from season two
Now she is going to court to have her footage removed in both the episodes and the promotional material for the new season, according to TMZ.
The series premieres on November 17.

Joe Exotic was jailed for attempted murder
In the first season, she is the competitor to tiger breeder Joe Exotic. Or Joseph Maldonado-Passage – as he is actually called.
The latter was in January last year sentenced to 22 years behind bars for attempting to kill a hitman competitor Baskin.
He was also convicted of a number of violations of the Endangered Species Act, including the killing of five tigers.
Previously, Baskin won over Exotic in court, and took over the right to the whole large area and the zoo for which the latter lived and breathed.
