Charlie Says controversy

In 2018 Shulman along with producing partner Jeremy Rosen,[5] produced Charlie Says. The film reunited the American Psycho filmmaking duo of Mary Harron and Guinevere Turner in an unexplored view of the Charles Manson murders. The film focuses on the women in Manson's cult, facing life imprisonment and is based on the books The Family, by Ed Saunders and The Long Prison Journey of Leslie Van Houten, by Karlene Faith. The film premiered at the Venice Film Festival, was nominated for Best Director and is scheduled for theatrical release in 2019 by IFC.[6][7][8]

In September 2018 Shulman filed suit in L.A. Superior Court against the other producers of Charlie Says. The suit says they illegally cut his percentage on the film and only gave him credit for a reduced role. Shulman was recovering from cancer at the time.[9][10][11][12][13] On February 9th 2023, in one of the first jury trials to decide the value of a motion picture producer credit, Mr. Shulman was awarded $1.9M, including over $1M in damages related to fraud.[14]
