SAG-AFTRA’s contract with AMPTP expired at midnight on July 13, and both sides failed to agree on a new one, meaning an actors strike is imminent.
Hollywood is in a state of crisis as the writers and stars of movies and television shows fight for their rights against big studios. The Writers Guild of America strike began on May 2, 2023, after the guild and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers failed to reach an agreement concerning their new contract.
The current president of SAG-AFTRA is Fran Drescher, who was elected in September 2021. She is the organization's third president, following in the footsteps of Ken Howard and Gabrielle Carteris. SAG-AFTRA represents thousands of actors, including Mark Ruffalo, Brendan Fraser, Jennifer Lawrence, Viola Davis, Julia-Louis Dreyfus, and many other talented performers.
What The Actors Strike Would Mean For Movies & TV Shows: Could Anything Be Made? A SAG-AFTRA strike would mean that numerous film and television show productions would shut down since the actors would not be able to work. If they agreed to work, that would indicate that they crossed the picket line, which is highly frowned upon by the union and its leadership since they are actively protecting their members.
