Negotiators for the SAG-AFTRA actors union and Hollywood studios will try again Tuesday to end the crippling strike that began July 14.

Negotiators for the SAG-AFTRA actors union and Hollywood studios will try again Tuesday to end the crippling strike that began July 14, as the sides resume talks that broke off nearly two weeks ago.

"Negotiations between the AMPTP and SAG-AFTRA have been suspended after SAG-AFTRA presented its most recent proposal ..." AMPTP said in a statement at the time."After meaningful conversations, it is clear that the gap between the AMPTP and SAG-AFTRA is too great, and conversations are no longer moving us in a productive direction."

Her comments came the same day a group of Hollywood labor unions called for negotiations to resume "immediately." "Our members work side-by-side for the same handful of employers, and our unions and guilds collectively stand more united than ever," the unions' statement went on.
