SAG strike: Stars join picket line in massive Hollywood protest - BBC News

A Hollywood mega-strike involving writers and performers is likely to grind to a halt the production of most movies and many popular television shows.

The last time members of the Screen Actors Guild - American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) walked out was in July 1980.

If the mega-strike rolls on for months then picturehouses could have problems, and viewers could be left with nothing new to watch, except for reality TV and live sport.

As sound stages across the US and other parts of the world fall quieter as a result of the Hollywood mega-strike, meetings between the guilds and entertainment industry representatives will take place.
