Actors on strike

Available for over a year

Tens of thousands of Hollywood actors are preparing to strike after last-ditch talks between their unions and streaming giants broke down just hours before a major deadline. The Screen Actors Guild has agreed to one extension of talks with major studios but the union has been unable to agree a deal over issues around pay residuals and the use of artificial intelligence.
