Industry insiders will have to wait longer to know if there will be an actors’ strike as SAG-AFTRA and top studios and streamers extended their current contract negotiations until July 12. The union and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers have been negotiating for three-year contracts concerning 160,000 performers, with the union seeking strong protections for members and studios looking to cut spending. If no agreement is reached by July 12, the union can call a strike, which would be its first targeting major film and TV companies in four decades. Keywords: actors’ strike, contract negotiations, SAG-AFTRA.
