Mining magnate Gina Rinehart is planning to sue the producers of controversial TV series House of Hancock, including the actress Claudia Karvan. According to Fairfax Media, the NSW Supreme Court heard from Ms Rinehart's barrister Sue Chrysanthou who claimed the Nine Network show about the messy divorce of Ms Rinehart's father, Lang Hangcock, and her mother was 'misleading and deceptive conduct'. Ms Rinehart launched a legal battle with Nine earlier this year to try to stop the series going to air. She failed to stop it completely and it was screened in February, with some changes forced by the court hearings.Nine Network TV mini-series House of Hancock aired in FebruaryThe show dramatises her relationship with her late father Lang HancockReports say the billionaire plans to sue producers of the two-part seriesThe producers are Claudia Karvan, Michael Cordell and Paul BennettShe will be taking them to court over 'misleading and deceptive conduct'This comes after Ms Rinehart's legal battle with Nine Network in FebruaryBut her defamation and malicious falsehood claims are likely to be dropped
