“Disney should be ashamed of themselves for resorting to tired tactics of gender-shaming and bullying,” the leader of the performers’ union said in a statement released on Friday. “Actors must be compensated for their work according to their contracts. Scarlett Johansson is shining a white-hot spotlight on the improper shifts in compensation that companies are attempting to slip by talent as distribution models change.
She added, “Nobody in any field of work should fall victim to surprise reductions in expected compensation. It is unreasonable and unjust. Disney and other content companies are doing very well and can certainly live up to their obligations to compensate the performers whose art and artistry are responsible for the corporation’s profits.”
it might be time to acknowledge that Walt has been dead a long time & Disney is a for-profit corporation interested in minimizing overhead & maximizing profits. the hedge funds demand it.
As he should!
king_koddy As it should be
😮
Because she’s set to win her dispute
I think he has to, she pays his salary and he represents her
hello3996 I think its kind of important that the actual real name of a real crook be in all of the headlines. The next generation of artists will not have the option of saying no to Disney. It's unrealistic. But they could avoid Disney's lawyer, Dan Petrocelli, if they're warned...
Disney tried to guiltrip her, but it didn't use gender bashing. That's just so stupid to claim.
See as an actor I want to believe in SJ and bc I like her. But Gabby hones in on gender bashing where I'm not seeing any evidence in the Disney statement. Callous does not equal female or gender at all. Where is that connected in their eyes? And lastly SJ already made 20m? Ya🖕
The gender shaming claim was unnecessary and ultimately weakens her defense. This a contract dispute. That’s what needs to be addressed instead of making her legitimate issue yet another fight in the culture war. She should be paid because she’s an actor, not a female actor.
Go, Scarlett!
Sorry, can someone point out the “gender shaming” part of Disney’s statement for me?
Sometimes you gotta fight for your rights. Go, Ms Johansson!
Shame on me, but I had no earthly idea Andrea from Beverly Hills 90210 is the SAG-AFTRA President. You really do learn something new every day.
