Lawyers for Hunter Biden attempted to “infiltrate” the set of an upcoming film about him, according to the film’s director Robert Davi.

Davi first made the claim Friday in an interview with Breitbart News, the media outlet distributing “My Son Hunter.” The “Die Hard” star described how he was filming the new project in Serbia, which is when lawyers for President Joe Biden’s son allegedly tried to get access to the set posing as documentary filmmakers.

“We filmed in Serbia because I needed, you know, Ukraine. I needed to have that visuals,” said Davi. “A month before I was there, Hunter was in Serbia at Belgrade, a month before we started to film, and also they sent a team of lawyers down that were saying they were doing a documentary, to infiltrate the set and we find out later on that they were sent down … and they’re representing Hunter Biden.”

“My Son Hunter,” which has a Sept. 7 release, focuses on the relationship between Joe and Hunter Biden, Davi told Mediaite. The film “follows the U.S. President’s son in his lifestyle and his scandalous business dealings,” according to an IMDB description.

Davi also told Mediaite Saturday that at the time he “had a funny feeling” Hunter’s lawyers “weren’t forthcoming.” The director claimed he told the lawyers his goal for the film was not to “demonize” the Biden son.

Hunter lawyers Chris Clark and George Mesires did not respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.

The film about Hunter’s life comes roughly one year after the Biden son released a memoir titled “Beautiful Things” detailing “his descent into substance abuse and his tortuous path to sobriety.”

Graphic content seemingly from Hunter’s personal iCloud account got leaked on 4chan in July, with one video appearing to show the Biden son weighing crack cocaine.

“Drug addiction is terrible,” Davi also told Mediaite. “I’ve had family members that had drug addiction. I didn’t want to demonize that. At the base, it’s a father and son story.”
