Negotiations between SAG-AFTRA and Hollywood studios are progressing, with a deal potentially within reach to end the 110-day actors strike. Talks have focused on AI issues and contract language regarding actors' share of streaming project revenue. While some studio-side sources express optimism, remaining issues may take a few more days to resolve. Both sides face pressure to reach a timely agreement, with studios warning that their 2024 film slates could be affected. A group of A-list actors has also urged negotiating leaders not to back down.
