After negotiators for SAG-AFTRA and the major Hollywood studios met for the first time since the actors union walked off the job in mid-July, talks are set to resume Wednesday in a bid to put scripted film and TV productions back in business.
Following Monday's initial negotiating session, the two sides issued a joint statement saying only that they had met for a full day. No details were released.
"Several executives from AMPTP member companies will be in attendance. As negotiations proceed, we will report any substantiative updates directly to you," SAG-AFTRA said in last week's statement. The WGA strike began May 2, with actors going on strike in mid-July over many of the same issues, including residual formulas for streamed content and protections against the use of artificial intelligence.
SAG-AFTRA represents about 160,000 actors. Its demands include general wage increases, protections against the use of actor images through artificial intelligence, boosts in compensation for successful streaming programs and improvements in health and retirement benefits.
