0:00.0	Hello everyone and welcome to Slash Film Daily for July 25th 2018 on today's episode
0:04.8	we'll discuss the latest TV in film news. This is Slash Film, Editor-in-Chief Peter
0:09.7	Sorata and joining me on today's podcast is Slash Film, Senior Writer, Ben Pearson. Hey what's going on? And
0:15.0	I'm joining me on today's podcast is Slash Film, senior writer. Ben Pearson.
0:14.0	Hey, what's going on?
0:15.0	And writer, Chris Evangelista.
0:17.0	Hello.
0:18.0	Okay, guys, I think this is the first time in over a week that we have a normal news-filled episode of Slash Film Daily.

1:20.0	So it's not like they did costly reshoots or anything, which is often what we hear about, you know, when movies take big hiatuses like this. So that didn't happen, but yeah, just the idea that their key star during an injury that happened on the set,
1:36.2	having to necessitate the shutdown means that the budget boosted pretty high.
1:41.8	So I guess insurance is going to be covering a good percentage of this because like I said this happened on set it was during the production so but even you know offsetting the insurances I guess contributions to how this whole thing is going to
