Willis claims Bruce DiMattia threatened to release private photos and disclose personal information unless he was given the money and bought a car.

The actor is seeking $1m (�525,000) damages, according to papers filed at the Los Angeles Superior Court.

Mr DiMattia worked for Willis from 2002-2006, maintaining the actor's personal items and memorabilia.
