Striking actors reach tentative agreement with Hollywood studios to end strike
- Hollywood actors' union Sag-Aftra has reached a tentative deal with Hollywood studios to end a months-long strike, which caused major disruption in the industry. The strike will officially end on Thursday, allowing Hollywood to ramp up full production for the first time since May.
- One of the final sticking points in the negotiations was protections for performers from the use of artificial intelligence by studios and streamers. Actors wanted control over their likeness on screen and feared that AI could manipulate their images without permission or replace human actors with digital images.
- The Hollywood strikes cost the Southern California economy more than $6.5 billion and 45,000 entertainment industry jobs. The combination of the actors and writers' strikes had a significant impact, leading to postponed releases and halted productions, affecting various workers in the film industry.
