James Bond star Eva Green on Friday won a court case in the UK over her US$1mil (RM4.46mil) acting fee for the never-made science fiction film A Patriot.

The French actress had sued UK-based production company White Lantern Film at the High Court in London for the fee but the firm countersued, saying she derailed the £4-million (RM22.4mil) project by making "unreasonable demands".
