Screenwriters are waiting to learn what their five-month strike won and preparing for a possible return to work after their union reached an agreement with studio executives
“It’s been a long, hard-fought victory," John August, a writer on films including “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” who is also a member of the negotiating committee, said on his podcast, choking up as he spoke. “But it’s nice to be near the end.”
Union leaders told writers not to return to work yet, but picketing will be suspended. They encouraged writers to join the actors on their picket lines in solidarity. The agreement came just five days before the strike would have become the longest in the guild's history and the longest Hollywood strike more than 70 years. When an agreement was reached in the last writers strike, in 2008, more than 90 percent of members voted to approve it.
