The Writers Guild of America (WGA) and the labor union representing studios and streamers have finally reached a tentative agreement on a new contract following a gruelling sequence of discussions and meetings that lasted several straight days. This important development has the potential to put an end to the record-breaking 146-day writers’ strike, relieving the entertainment sector. The SAG AFTRA strike has ended, allowing movies and TV shows that were blocked or delayed to continue production. Celebrities from Hollywood, including Priyanka Chopra, joined in the festivities as soon as the news of the agreement broke, praising those who had made a significant contribution to its success and signaling the start of a new era for the entertainment industry.
According to reports, the Writers Guild of America sent an email on Sunday night to strike captains with the news before making a general announcement to all of its members. The message said, “We have reached a tentative agreement on a new 2023 MBA, which is to say an agreement in principle on all deal points, subject to drafting final contract language.” In a joint statement with the WGA, the Association of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) likewise reaffirmed the historic deal.
These negotiations were kept from breaking the union record for length by taking place over five days straight over the weekend. The previous record was set in 1988 when the WGA went on strike for 154 days against Hollywood studios.
Heads Of State, Priyanka Chopra’s next movie, will now resume production after earlier being put on hold owing to the strike. Ilya Naishuller, the project’s director, also features Idris Elba and John Cena in this OTT movie. Additionally, the actress is set to share the screen with Guardians of The Galaxy star Chris Pratt in a film titled Cowboy Ninja Viking.
