[gallery columns="3"]Dr. Dre is reportedly in motions to sue Sony Pictures over a new film about his former girlfriend Michel’le, which depicts him beating her according to new reports from TMZ. The TV movie in question, Surviving Compton: Dre, Suge & Michel’le, is set to release this week, but Dre’s lawyers have since sent a cease and desist letter to the company threatening legal action. The claim states Michel’le, the mother of one of Dre’s children, “never sought medical treatment or filed a police report”. Meanwhile, the film is said to show Dr Dre’s character punching Michel’le in the face, pulling her hair and pulling a gun on her. A trailer (which can be seen above) for the film shows Dre’s character taking hold of Michel’le by the neck and threatening her. Stay tuned.
