      On some level, isn’t it very capitalist?

      The studio has outlayed dollars from before the start of production, and they don’t get any of that back until distribution.

      If a star gets hurt and they can’t shoot, getting returns are delayed.

      If that pushes out a quarter or even fiscal year, that could have consequences for them. That assumes that there are any ongoing costs like rented equipment or properties.

      Therefore, the most capitalist thing to do is to minimize risk by hiring dime-a-dozen stuntmens to do the stunts.
