As studio executives prepare for a fight — and the Directors Guild irks Writers Guild leadership by informally discussing their own deal with employers — scribes themselves aren’t so sure one is coming.
Amid restructurings at such companies as Netflix and Warner Bros. Discovery and the threat of a potential recession that writers say is hurting both the showrunner and workaday writer class, “This is going to be a weird moment that is going to test our ability to figure out whether or not we can get some of the things we need in a treacherous economic position,” says one veteran TV scribe who puts the odds of a strike after the WGA contract expires at 20 percent.
One top TV executive, speaking on background, is confident that a strike will happen, noting that a work stoppage’s impact may not hit companies’ bottom line until later in the year, and cost savings might be beneficial.
