Why was Something’s Got to Give never completed?

The film Something’s Got to Give was never completed primarily due to the production challenges surrounding its star, Marilyn Monroe.12

During the filming in 1962, Monroe was frequently absent from the set due to illnesses. These absences led to her being fired from the project in June 1962. Although the studio later rehired her, production on the film never resumed. Shortly thereafter, Monroe died from an overdose of sleeping pills, an event that permanently halted the film's completion.21
