What to know about the “interim agreements” that are keeping some Hollywood productions filming.
The Writers' Guild of America has opted not to grant similar agreements in their own strike. In an attempt to show solidarity and sync strategy, SAG-AFTRA changed course Monday and said interim agreements would not be granted to productions that were covered by the WGA contract.
Has Hollywood really shut down? The actors' and writers' unions are striking simultaneously for the first time in more than 60 years, causing major movies and shows to halt production. From anticipated sequels including "Deadpool 3" and "Beetlejuice 2" to TV hits "Stranger Things" and "Cobra Kai," fans will likely have to wait longer than expected for their big and small-screen faves.
“It provides absolute empirical proof that the terms that we are seeking in the negotiation are reasonable,” he told The Associated Press in an interview. “We have hundreds of independent producers who say we’ll be happy to produce under those terms.” “I do understand that some members feel like it creates a confusing message or that it makes it not as clear of a line,” Crabtree-Ireland conceded. But he added that “we’re all very clear on the fact that AMPTP companies are the companies we’re on strike against.”
