A Mexican director is suing Mel Gibson, claiming he has stolen his ideas.
Juan Catlett insists that Gibson stole some of his work for his new film Apocalypto, by using scenes from Catlett's film Return To Aztlan.
He claims that the director's manager requested a copy of the 1989 movie whilst Apocalypto was in its filming process.
Catlett has now started legal proceedings against Gibson. Apocalypto opened earlier this month, taking £10 million in the first weekend.
