BREAKING: Thousands of Hollywood actors are going on strike after contract negotiations with major studios fail, a move that could grind production to a halt.
LOS ANGELES — Thousands of Hollywood actors are heading to the picket lines after their labor union and a trade group representing the industry's leading studios failed to reach a deal on a new contract, grinding film and television production to a halt.
"What's happening to us is happening across all fields of labor," said SAG-AFTRA President Fran Drescher."When employers make Wall Street and greed their priority and they forget about the essential contributors that make the machine run." "The AMPTP presented a deal that offered historic pay and residual increases, substantially higher caps on pension and health contributions, audition protections, shortened series option periods, and a groundbreaking AI proposal that protects actors’ digital likenesses for SAG-AFTRA members," the group said.
Members of SAG-AFTRA join striking members of the Writers Guild of America in Los Angeles on June 21, 2023.SAG-AFTRA members authorized a strike June 5 by an overwhelming margin: 97.91% of the almost 65,000 members who cast votes. The guild began negotiating with the top studios and streaming services two days later.
