The Actors' Strike

The Goggler Podcast #399: The Actors’ Strike

Dept. of Jibbers, Jabbers, and Yackety-Yaks

Today, on The Goggler Podcast, Uma and Bahir break down everything that’s going on in Hollywood right now, why the movie and television industry is facing its first shutdown in more than 60 years, and what it could mean for you and your favorite shows.

The Hollywood actors’ strike was called on Thursday morning by US actors’ union SAG-AFTRA (which was formed in 2012 after a merger between the Screen Actors Guild and the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists), after the breakdown in negotiations with the AMPTP (Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers), which represents the studio bosses. SAG-AFTRA has around 160,000 members: actors in film and TV shows, as well as video game performers, radio presenters, models, and YouTube influencers. Technically the union only covers the US, but its Global Rule One demands that members pull out of any production anywhere in the world
