The movie comes as the writers strike against the studios enters its 37th day, impacting production and day-to-day work across the industry. On Monday, Sas the actors’ union readies to begin its own talks for a new TV/Theatrical contract. That contract expires June 30. “Support staff jobs are the elemental step to a career in film and television, and the first three years are incredibly important,” Rubin said. “They’re times of learning, connection, and growing into who you will be as a member of the industry, but those years also include low pay, long hours, and sacrifice. Work stoppages interrupt a new professional’s trajectory and, when coupled with the daily lack of support and resources, can mean the end of a career.

The Directors Guild of America (DGA) will ask its 19,000 members to approve the three-year contract, which was announced late on Saturday after three weeks of talks. The agreement includes gains in wages and residuals plus guardrails around the use of artificial intelligence, according to the DGA and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP), which represents Netflix, Walt Disney Co and other major studios.
