Talent shows up to do a scene, but for whatever reasons the shoot is canceled. AFAIK, this talent is usually compensated with a kill fee for their wasted time.

Thanxs Zoid!
So who are entitled to a kill fee?
Only actors or the crew aswell?
How much is a reasonable kill fee in percent of the salary?
And why is it called a kill fee?

I don't know if there is an established percentage for a kill fee. From what I read here over the years, it seems more like "whatever director has in his pocket at the moment" kind of thing. lol!
Guess the term was simply taken over from the publishing world. Magazine/newspapers editors sometimes decide against publishing certain articles (hence 'killing' them). Their authors would then get a kill fee.
