It could be a glitch confined to this one project. Try doing an Edit/Select All, Edit/Copy, of all the media in your project and then Edit/Paste the media into a newly created project. Now see if the issue is cured.

It could be something as simple as a corrupt preference. Try deleting preferences and see if that cures the problem. To delete preferences open iMovie while holding down the Option and Command keys and select to delete preferences in the box that appears. iMovie will open in a new library. Reopen your old library to get back to your projects.  Deleting preferences is a safe

procedure that will not cause data loss or disruption to your project.
