Previous to the Left Behind film release in 2000, LaHaye sued Namesake Entertainment and Cloud Ten Pictures in July, 1999, claiming there had been a breach of contract. The suit said that the producers told LaHaye that the budget for the movie's production would be over $40 million. However, productions costs came to $17.4 million.[1]
