A group of more than 400 actors — including Oscar winners Meryl Streep, Jennifer Lawrence and Rami Malek — are urging SAG-AFTRA leaders to take a harder line as contract talks reach a critical point.
The members sent an internal letter Tuesday to the union’s negotiating committee and the leadership. They emphasized that “we are prepared to strike if it comes to that.”
The contract expires on Friday, and the leadership has the power to call a strike as soon as Saturday if no agreement is reached. “This is not a moment to meet in the middle, and it’s not an exaggeration to say that the eyes of history are on all of us,” they wrote. “We ask that you push for all the change we need and protections we deserve and make history doing it. If you are not able to get all the way there, we ask that you use the power given to you by us, the membership, and join the WGA on the picket lines. For our union and its future, this is our moment.
The signatories of the letter also include Glenn Close, Ben Stiller, Laura Linney, Julia Louis Dreyfus, Elliot Page, Amy Poehler, Quinta Brunson, Liam Neeson, Emmy Rossum, Amy Schumer, Neil Patrick Harris, Constance Wu, Billy Eichner, Paul Walter Hauser, John Slattery, and Natasha Lyonne, among others.
