It comes as always Smiling Productions, the production company behind The Morning Show, filed a lawsuit suit in California federal court against Chubb National Insurance Company for financial losses stemming from the COVID-19 shutdown and the second season delays.
According to THR, the producers estimate that they have lost a total of $44 million as a result of the shutdowns.
The trade explains that Always Smiling has $125 million in cast coverage for The Morning Show, which covers “death, injury, sickness, kidnap, or compulsion by physical force or threat of physical force.”
There is also coverage that accounts for any immediate danger to a shooting location.
