Speaking of insurance, this married B +/- actress is set to begin filming on a new movie in a few months. It keeps being delayed though because no one wants to insure her, and the fairly large all B+ cast needs to get it done before the strike. No insurance in the next week or two means a new leading lady for the film.

I still get sad when I think of her.
Tinker Bell is a 2008 computer animated film and the first installment in the Disney Fairies franchise produced by DisneyToon Studios. It revolves around Tinker Bell, a fairy character created by J. M. Barrie in his play Peter Pan, or The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up, and featured in the 1953 Disney animated film, Peter Pan and its 2002 sequel Return to Never Land. Unlike Disney's two Peter Pan films featuring the character, which were produced primarily using traditional animation, Tinker Bell was produced using digital 3D modeling. The film was released on DVD and Blu-ray by Walt Disney Home Video on September 18, 2008.
Tinker Bell is the first Disney film to feature Tinker Bell in a speaking role. Actress Brittany Murphy was originally selected for the part, before the role went to Mae Whitman.[3]
Insurance companies smarter than most think.
Insurance companies ruined many an acting/dancing/singing career back in the 80s when they wouldn't insure actors who were HIV+. I knew a couple of them personally. Broadway will never be the same.
I don't think the insurance companies ruined any ones career but no doubt a lot of performers were unable to work in productions due to the producer being unable to secure cast insurance on performers given their illness and associated $$$ risks when their were HIV- performers available at lower rates. No different than for performers with other potentially debilitating illness or others with behavior/drug problems. Just another horrific result of the aids crisis in the 80s in an industry where millions of dollars are invested and largely dependent on acting talent where payoff comes after production.
"Insurance on stars is called cast insurance, and it protects against the risk that stars will not be able to film due to sickness, injury or death. Producers insure their stars because having an actor unable to film can cost them hundreds of thousands of dollars a day. Guilds and union have rules requiring payment for the crew even if filming is delayed by an actor. Location fees and equipment rentals also add to the cost of a delay. According to The Hollywood Reporter, a delay of just one day can cost up to $250,000 for a big-budget film."
