Why the 2020 video game Immortals: Fenyx Rising doesn't infringe on the trademark of the 2011 film Immortals?
This seems very weird given that both media involve Greek mythological settings. And the video game had to be renamed as well...
You're viewing a single thread.
Immortals is far too generic to be a problem, there are plenty of other works that also use that name. The name changed from gods and monsters because they didn't want to fight monster energy and potentially delay the game.
I thought Monster Cable were the litigious ones?
Monster Cables sued Monster Energy, and then Monster Energy sued the publisher of Immortals: Fenyx Rising before it changed its name from Gods & Monsters. Basically, Monster Energy decided to do what was done to them, probably just for the money and to see if they could get away with it.
