The ongoing actors’ strike in the industry has been postponed until mid-July after the Hollywood Actors’ Union and the studios agreed to continue talks for two more weeks.
According to the reports of foreign news agency, leading actresses Meryl Streep and Jennifer Lawrence have also announced their support for the strike.
According to media reports, more than 11,500 members of the Hollywood story writers’ organization ‘Writers Guild’ have been on strike since May 2. Several film and TV production units have been closed due to their strike.
According to media sources, the number of members of the actors’ union is 160,000. If the actors strike along with the writers’ guild, the work of Hollywood will come to a complete halt.
According to a foreign news agency, the actors’ union and the studios have agreed to continue negotiations for two more weeks, after which the ongoing actors’ strike in the industry has been temporarily postponed until mid-July. However, if the negotiations are not successful by July 12, there will be a threat of strike.
According to media reports, Writers Guild says that generative artificial intelligence has changed the entertainment industry, with generative artificial intelligence, digital actors can also be created with scripts. Hollywood actors and storytellers want better pay and protection from economic concerns posed by artificial intelligence.
On the other hand, the Producers Union says that we are willing to increase the salaries of the writers, but we cannot accept all the demands.
Keep in mind that in 2007 and 2008, the Writers Guild strike cost more than $2 billion.
