Beyonce is facing a lawsuit over her new album, ‘Lemonade’ as a film producer alleges she copied a move he made more than a year before her album dropped.  


The producer, Matthew Fulks is suing Beyonce and her record label, saying much of the "Lemonade" trailer completely rips off his 2014 short film, "Palinoia." In the suit, he says his project also depicted a "tumultuous relationship."

He says his beef is really over 39 seconds of the trailer, which have a slew of images similar to his movie. Specifically ... characters in front of graffiti-covered walls, red tinted images, dimly lit parking garages and closeup shots of "overgrown grass, TMZ reports.

Fulks says he knows a Senior VP at Columbia Music, Bey's label, saw "Palinoia" sometime in 2015 -- and he thinks the exec stole his ideas for "Lemonade" ... which started shooting at the end of 2015.
He wants Bey and the label to give him a cut of their profits from her hit record.
