Penn claims breach of oral contract and is asking for $10 million in damages. Bing claims civil extortion and is claiming $15 million in damages.

LOL, in Hollywood even the written contracts aren't worth the paper they are prineted on (at least if you're a writer - actors tend to have better agents and lawyers).

You can't be fired from a job you never had.

If so, I'd love to see his final performance trying to catch a Mark 84/2000 pound bomb. God knows I've sat thru a few of his bombs/films.
