The effects of the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike were immediately felt in various TV and movie projects, but with the Screen Actors Guild strike now happening too, many scheduled projects, especially those from the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the DC Universe, will surely be delayed even further. The labor dispute between the WGA and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers began on May 2, 2023, and it’s expected to continue for many more months.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Among the demands of the writers’ strike are higher compensation and higher residual payments, while the SAG strike is also demanding higher pay, arguing that actors’ pay has been undercut by inflation and the streaming ecosystem. Various film and TV sets shut down in May due to the WGA strike, leading to the delay of many of these projects, including some in the superhero genre.
2023's Hollywood Strike Updates Suggest Many Movies Will Be Delayed Far Further As mentioned above, various movies and TV shows have already been affected by the WGA strike, putting production on hold and thus delaying their release. In between these strikes, projects like Blade, Daredevil: Born Again, Wonder Man, The Penguin, and Superman: Legacy have been impacted by them, with some of them pausing during pre-production and others before they finally started shooting .
The writers’ strike alone had major consequences on TV shows and movies, and most of them will now also be affected by the SAG strike. A couple of MCU projects are in the middle of filming, and there are big changes that will be put on hold due to the actors’ strike. On DC’s side, those affected in some way will most likely be the TV series The Penguin and the movie Superman: Legacy, with the latter dropping casting announcements shortly before the actors’ strike was confirmed to happen.
Why 2023's Hollywood Strike Update Is So Worrying On the surface, the 2023 Hollywood strikes are worrying as companies refuse to understand the real issues that writers and actors are bringing to their attention, but there are deeper, a lot more worrying implications here.
