Inventing Anna Legal Battle Ends: Netflix Settles Defamation Lawsuit

• Netflix has settled a defamation lawsuit filed by Rachel DeLoache Williams over her portrayal in the series "Inventing Anna."
• Williams, a former Vanity Fair staffer, claimed the show falsely depicted her as "snobbish" and "greedy" while softening Anna Sorokin's image.
• The lawsuit, filed in 2022, argued the series deliberately made Williams a villain out of "animus."
• Netflix's attempts to dismiss the case based on creative license were rejected by a federal judge.
• The terms of the settlement have not been disclosed by either party.
