After months of long and exhausting protests, an agreement seems to have been reached to put an end to the screenwriters’ strike
We talked about it for months, without knowing how long the strike that involved the world of screenwriters and, subsequently also that of actors, would continue. Now, after months of protests, it seems an agreement has been reached between the Hollywood studios and the representative unions. Let’s find out the details.
A historic agreement | Writers’ strike: finally an agreement is reached
After 5 months of protests, the workers’ union WGA managed to obtain an agreement which someone has already defined as historical. The association managed to find a meeting point with the other party AMPTP. The new solution could finally put an end to a critical situation for the world of cinema and TV series. In fact, for months many productions were suspended, resulting in a delay in the release. These include Stranger Things, The Last of Us and The Mandalorian. The situation then worsened further, when the protests of the screenwriters were also joined by those of the actors.
The contents of the agreement
Now you are probably wondering what the contents of this agreement are. The details have not yet been well specified, but we can tell you that one of the points on which we wanted to focus the most attention is that of the use of artificial intelligence. For more details we will have to wait for the next few hours, when all the contents of the agreement will be shared. The negotiators were keen to point out that they look forward to talking about every point considered by the parties, but that they will only be able to do so when each of them has been properly settled. They spoke of the result achieved as “an exceptional agreement, with significant earnings and forms of protection for screenwriters in every sector”.
We just have to understand how the actors’ strike will end, as they should find an agreement in the next few hours. Let’s hope this is indeed the case, in order to avoid further delays in the releases of films and series. Continue following everything to stay updated on any updates in this regard.
