Hollywood Writers' Strike Ends with Tentative Studio Deal
TL;DR
The Hollywood writers' strike, the longest and costliest in history, has come to an end after 146 days. The Writers Guild of America (WGA) and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) reached an agreement that includes increases to minimum wage and compensation, improved pension and health fund rates, better residuals, and provisions regarding the use of artificial intelligence. The WGA contract is expected to influence negotiations with other trade unions, including SAG-AFTRA. While the writers' strike is over, the actors' strike continues, causing delays in TV and film production.
