In 1997, pornography director Milton Owen Ingley (also known as Michael Morrion) obtained a copy of Anderson and Lee’s sex tape from their home and sold copies from the website. After the leak, Anderson and Lee sued ingley and obtained a court injunction ordering him to stop the sales of the video. The couple also sued the video distribution company, Internet Entertainment Group. In an interview with Entertainment Tonight in 2021, Lee-who shares sons Brandon and Dylan with Anderson-gave his stamp of approval to Stan for playing him. “I know Sebastian, he’s playing me.Īfter a war in court, Anderson and Lee entered into a confidential settlement agreement with Internet Entertainment Group. From what he’s told me, really beautiful story,” he said. “I think a lot of people would think it’s one thing, but it’s really about privacy and how things got crazy then. There’s different laws now.” Lee continued, “The story’s actually cool, what actually happened wasn’t. To prepare for the role, Stan told the magazine that he watched past interviews with Lee on YouTube, read the drummer’s autobiography, Tommy Land, and consumed Mötley Crüe’s tell-all, The Dirt: Confessions of the World’s Most Notorious Rock Band. He also learned how to play the drums and re-create Lee’s signature style.
