In Chile, there's a car wash called "Star Wash" with a "Star Wars" theme. According to recent reports by Reuters, Disney's Lucasfilm is suing the car wash owner for copyright infringement, claiming that the car wash has plagiarized the movies and TV series, including the multibillion-dollar production, "Star Wars."

Star Wash has shared videos on social media featuring staff dressed as characters from "Star Wars," such as Chewbacca, Stormtroopers, or The Mandalorian.

The car wash's lawyer argues that they are currently defending against the lawsuit. Firstly, the name is significantly different from the film series, avoiding confusion. Additionally, they contend that the production company's copyright, while covering products like toys, furniture, and non-alcoholic beverages, does not include car cleaning services.
