Buckley said he received an “offensive” letter from Chubb in which the firm “staked out every defense under the sun,” Buckley said, “They said they were going to fight every single thing.”īuckley, in turn, was prepared to go to war with the studio. Initially, Fox’s insurer in the matter, Chubb, had indicated it would fight the family on every front. The bike, which Harris still clung to, careened across a street and hurled her into a building, killing her instantly. When it came time to do the scene, Harris rode the motorcycle down the stairs but then lost control. According to several people who had been working with her in the days leading up to the stunt, Harris was not properly prepared for the stunt. Harris was killed in August 2017 while performing a stunt that involved riding a high-powered Ducati motorcycle down a ramp laid atop a set of stairs. “I’m glad the family got something,” said another stunt performer, “This never should have happened.” Her death was senseless and could have been avoided.”
