Whole story is just a shitshow of broken contracts.
This part in particular helped me realise what the story is…
>The question at the center of the case: What actually killed Spacey’s appearance from the sixth season of the show? If you ask MRC, it’s because of the actor’s sex addiction, which it maintains is a sickness that led to his unavailability after he checked himself into a luxe Arizona rehab facility. But if you ask Fireman’s Fund, it’s because of media fallout in response to allegations of sexual assault. A win for MRC will have major implications for production insurance coverage moving forward.
>Under the policy, MRC was covered for losses in connection with a “sickness,” which wasn’t all that defined under the terms of the contract and will be a major focus of the trial. MRC had already produced five seasons of House of Cards starring Spacey, who by the end of the fifth seasons was President of the United States and running for re-election. And by the time the allegations against him surfaced, the first two episodes of the sixth had already been shot.
