Hollywood Actors END STRIKE INSTANTLY - Feeling Happy About New Deal With Studios

Hollywood's actors union and studios have tentatively agreed to end a record-breaking four-month strike, the longest in film and television history. The three-year contract, subject to board and member approval, aims to resolve issues of short-term compensation, future royalties, and control over actors' images and AI-generated likenesses. Over 60,000 members of the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Performers participated in the strike, aligning with previously striking screenwriters. The conclusion follows negotiations involving major entertainment companies and is expected to bring actors back to sets, restarting productions like "Deadpool 3" and "Gladiator 2." While providing relief to the industry, challenges posed by the shift to streaming and emerging technologies persist, and the gains made by the strikes may influence future negotiations #hollywood #hollywoodstrike #movies #hollywoodnews
