39-year-old Verne Troyer, the actor who played 'Mini-Me' in the Austin Powers movies and Griphook in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, has taken legal action in an attempt to prevent distribution of a sex tape of him and a former girlfriend.
The 2-foot, 8-inch actor claims the tape was stolen. He is seeking $20 million for breach of copyright and invasion of privacy. He has also requested an injunction to prevent the tape from being distributed further.
The tape has reportedly come into the possession of the producer responsible for the release of Paris Hilton's sex tape.
