Mission: Impossible request leads to Hollywood encounter

Paramount Studios is suing its insurer, Chubb National Insurance Company, for failing to cover the vast majority of its damages caused by pandemic-related set closures on Mission Impossible 7.
The studio’s lawyers claimed in a lawsuit filed in federal court in California that they had suffered severe losses and damages as a result of being forced to postpone and suspend production of the Tom Cruise starrer “due to Closure Orders affecting different filming locations, cast illnesses, and the need to protect cast and crew and its locations from exposure to SARS-CoV-2.”
A summary of the case:
Between February 2020 and June 2021, the production of Mission Impossible 7, which is set to hit theatres on May 27, 2022, was postponed seven times. Six times, COVID-19 was cited as the cause of the delay.
The studio’s insurance, Chubb, however, has stated that it will only pay $1 million for losses caused by the coronavirus. The amount was determined by the insurer’s “civil authority insurance,” which only covers government-ordered shutdowns.
What is Paramount’s stance on the matter?
