A union representing about 160,000 Hollywood actors is poised to go on strike after talks with major studios and streaming services have failed
Within minutes of the government confirming that they'd accepted the recommendations of the pay review bodies, the teaching unions in England had called off their strikes.
Tens of thousands of Hollywood actors are eagerly awaiting the decision of their union regarding a potential strike. Last-ditch negotiations with major studios have become increasingly tense just hours before the critical deadline, reported news agency AFP. The Screen Actors Guild (SAG-AFTRA) has already agreed to extend talks with the studios once, but they have yet to reach an agreement on crucial issues like pay and the use of artificial intelligence (AI).
Screenwriters have already been picketing for more than 70 days in the ongoing fight for proper compensation in the streaming era.
