Talks between the WGA and AMPTP will continue on Wednesday. As Deadline revealed on Friday, the two sides were scheduling more conversations during their previously planned two-week break
earlier this week after saying said the studios “failed to offer meaningful responses on the core economic issues in any of the WGA’s primary work areas” and admitted that they have made “small moves” towards an agreement.We might be getting somewhere after it emerged that the writers and studios could hold more talks over the next two weeks.Deadline understands that there is a proposal in place for the two sides to potentially talk next Tuesday.
However, this comes amid expectations that the WGA is still planning to ask its members over the coming days for a strike authorization vote, in what was described to Deadline as a series of “roadshows”. “It’s less antagonist with Ellen,” another well connected guild member said in praise of Stutzman and the way she has held the WGA Negotiating team together. “I don’t think anyone in their right mind wants a strike, but the leverage is important.”The first week began slowly with one source describing it as “arduous” as the two sides danced around each other.
Having said all of this, and with the strike authorization still a distinct possibility, one insider familiar with the negotiations told Deadline, “I’m 95% sure there is going to be a strike, everybody assumes it is coming at this point.” The writers say that the studios have used streaming to cut writer pay, separate writing from production and “worsen” working conditions for series at all levels.
For now, it will be key to see how and when the two sides to return to discussions, admittedly close to Passover. The original plan was to return to the table on April 17, two weeks before the WGA’s contract with the AMPTP expires.
