Beth Grant, Bonnie Bedelia, Caroline Rhea, Jason Dottley, Leslie Jordan, Olivia Newton-John, CAST MEMBER, CAST MEMBERS, The Cast Photo - EXCLUSIVE!! "Sordid Lives" star Jason Dottley makes a statement with a t shirt that reads "Industry People Are Shady, which is all too familiar to Dottley and his "Sordid" co-stars. Stan Brooks, whose Once Upon a Time Films produced the series, allegedly failed to pay the cast members over $1.4 million. But now, the cast is seeing some action being taken. "Variety" reports that the American Federation of Television & Radio Artists (AFTRA) has issued a "do not work" order, telling talent agents not to make deals for its clients with Brooks companies. The union asserted that, according to the terms of its agreement for the series, cast members are required payment for each episodes domestic reruns and alleged that the non-payments include residuals, late payment penalties and health and pension contributions. Brooks, who is chair of the California Film Commission, denies the allegations. During a film commission hearing Friday, cast member Ann Walker said, "Are you willing to guarantee methat you will pay us what we have rightfully earned so that you can continue to serve as Chair of this Film Commission with the credibility and moral authority that the position deserves? If not, don't you think you should step down from the Commission to save the credibility of the position?" Dottley said that Brooks did not respond, but took out his phone and began texting. "Sordid Lives" star Bonnie Bedelia issued a statement that read, It's simply appalling that Stan Brooks is still allowed to produce while completely ignoring his contractual obligations." "Sordid Lives" also starred Olivia Newton-John, the late Rue McClanahan, Beth Grant, Caroline Rhea and Leslie Jordan. West Hollywood, CA. 8/2/10.
