HOLLYWOOD IN CRISIS: Megastars Set to Join Writers on Strike After Contract Expires
[ad_1]
The WGA has been advocating for increased payment for streaming content, which has become a major source of revenue for the industry. However, the AMPTP has been reluctant to meet the writers’ demands, leading to increased tensions between the two sides.
This strike follows a similar action taken by the WGA in 2007-2008, which lasted for 100 days and caused significant disruptions to the film and television industry. The outcome of that strike resulted in increased residuals for content distributed through new media platforms, such as streaming services.
