Kevin Costner vs. Stephen Baldwin.- American actor Kevin Costner (“Dances with Wolves”, “The Guardian”, “Thirteen Days”) has won a multi-million dollar lawsuit pursued by another Hollywood actor, Stephen Baldwin (“The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas”, “XChange”, “Shelter Island”).

Baldwin accused Costner of cheating him and his business partner in a deal to sell oil clean-up devices to British Petrol (BP) after the 2010 environmental tragedy in the Gulf of Mexico when the British company suffered an oil spill.

Baldwin claimed more than $17 million (13.4 million Euros) in damages but the court in charge of the case did not find any signs of illegal activity.
