Monday, 25 September 2023 The Writers Guild of America (WGA) has reached a preliminary labor agreement with major Hollywood studios, potentially ending one of the two strikes that have halted film and television production and cost the California economy billions. The deal, which still needs approval from the WGA leadership and union members, is described as "exceptional" with "meaningful gains and protections for writers." However, the SAG-AFTRA actors' union remains on strike, and negotiations to get actors back to work are ongoing. The strikes have resulted from disputes over compensation, minimum staffing, artificial intelligence use, and residuals for streaming shows.
