AMPTP to Reopen Negotiations With the WGA This Week
The Big Picture Major studios from across the industry are meeting with representatives of the Writers Guild of America this Friday to start talking about a deal that could potentially end the ongoing strike, according to Deadline. The WGA was joined by SAG-AFTRA earlier this summer, as the two guilds are currently fighting to obtain better working conditions for all of their workers.
The negotiations set to begin later this week don't necessarily mean the dual strike will reach its conclusion, but it's the first step to getting the deal the guilds are after. The WGA has been actively striking for three months with no forward motion from the studios, as the writers valiantly fight for substantial positive changes to the industry. There's no telling just how long the negotiations will go on for, and the resolution of the strike is still up in the air.
Some of the major productions that have stopped filming because of the strike are Deadpool 3, the final season of Stranger Things, and the next Paddington installment. While neither of those movies has moved on the release schedule, they might do so if the strike goes on for much longer. On the other hand, some studios have begun delaying projects that were ready to be shared with the world due to the ongoing strike.
Why Are the Guilds on Strike? One of the major concerns that caused actors and writers to go on strike was how studios were handling residuals related to streaming platforms. Even if a movie or television series gained popularity on any given platform, the people who work on it would receive a few pennies from the success of the titles.
