Actors, writers and hotel workers marched in solidarity across Hollywood.
Hotel workers, writers and actors marched in solidarity outside the Netflix headquarters Friday morning.The combined strike by Hollywood actors and screenwriters entered its second week with no sign that a swift ending will be achieved, and union leaders and star strikers sought Friday to keep morale high as the novelty of picket lines wears off.
On Friday, actors in London rallied in solidarity with their Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists brethren. Stars including Brian Cox, Andy Serkis, Hayley Atwell, Simon Pegg and Imelda Staunton gathered with other performers and production crew in Leicester Square for the demonstration organized by British actors’ union Equity.
"The wages are one thing, but the worst aspect is the whole idea of AI and what AI can do to us," he said. "AI is the really, really serious thing. And it’s the thing where we’re most vulnerable."Cox said it was important actors showed solidarity with striking screenwriters in the Writers Guild of America.
In a statement last week, the DGA said it was "proud to stand with actors and writers in their fight to win agreements that address their unique and important concerns, just as they supported us in our negotiations." In the U.S., Boston, Philadelphia and Chicago were among the the major cities with strike events Wednesday and Thursday, demonstrating that film production doesn’t just happen in New York and Los Angeles.
