Hollywood Actors Union to Vote on Strike After Talks Fall Apart

Hollywood’s SAG-Aftra union will vote on Thursday on whether to strike after failing to reach a new deal with the entity that represents major studios and steaming services.

Talks with the Alliance of Motion Picture & Television Producers, which represents major companies from Amazon.com Inc. and Netflix Inc. to Sony Group Corp. and Warner Bros. Discovery Inc. failed to reach an agreement after four weeks of bargaining over key issues, the union said in a statement. The AMPTP is unwilling to offer a fair deal on key issues, it said.
