After 118 days, SAG-AFTRA and the AMPTP finally reached a tentative agreement, and that means the strike is over.
“We are thrilled and proud to tell you that today your TV/Theatrical Negotiating Committee voted unanimously to approve a tentative agreement with the AMPTP,” the Actors Union wrote. “As of 12:01am PT on Nov. 9, our strike is officially suspended and all picket locations are closed.”
So now that the actors can go back to work, what does that mean for the broadcast TV shows? According to Deadline, production is expected to start after Thanksgiving. And that means that they should be able to do 10-13 episodes this season. However, not all of the shows will make it onto the 2023-2024 schedule. Some of them will be pushed to next season.
When it comes to film, Deadline is reporting they could be heading back to work as early as next week.
I am so happy that these strikes are finally over, and people can go back to doing what they love to do!
Congrats on getting a fair deal!!!
