Quaid said that he originally was approached in 2004 by director Ang Lee, who told him, that "We can't pay anything, we have very little money, everyone is making a sacrifice to make this film."

According to Zap2it, Quaid filed a lawsuit Thursday in Los Angeles County Superior Court alleging the producers got him to work cheap by falsely claiming the movie was 'a low-budget, art house film, with no prospect of making any money.
