The Wolf Of Wall Street (2013) producer Red Granite Pictures has agreed to pay $60 million to the US government to resolve allegations that it profited from a massive Malaysian corruption scandal. The company filed a joint stipulation with federal prosecutors. Under the agreement, Red Granite did not admit to any wrongdoing.
