Following the Writers Guild of America (WGA), the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (Sag-Aftra) has unanimously recommended a strike after failing to reach agreements over basic pay, residual payments, and the restriction of artificial intelligence’s use in creative work with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP).
However, the final decision will be taken by the national board on Thursday morning. Fran Drescher, the president of SAG-AFTRA, said the studio’s response to the bargaining was “insulting and disrespectful.”
