Tony Vinciquerra, chairman and CEO of Sony Pictures, took a guarded tone in talking about the SAG-AFTRA strike during an industry panel in Italy on Friday. But it was clear that he hopes it will be over soon.
“We want to make a deal,” the Sony chief went on, adding: “Even though there have been a lot of headlines saying the opposite.” “The thing that really troubles me though,” the Sony chief said, “Is all the people that are out of work that don’t have a dog in this hunt with the unions. They just can’t work, and that is just a very bad side effect of all this.”
Vinciquerra, who oversees Sony’s global operations, was asked if a protracted double strike in the U.S. could represent an opportunity for content creators and producers outside the U.S. who could conceivably move in to fill a market gap.
