Writers Guild and Studios Reach Tentative Deal to End Hollywood Strike

The Writers Guild of America and the labor group representing studios and streamers have reached a tentative deal on a new contract, potentially ending the historic 146-day writers' strike. The agreement, subject to ratification by WGA members, includes meaningful gains and protections for writers in every sector. Specifics of the deal affecting around 11,500 WGA members will be disclosed in the coming days. The deal will first go through a series of votes by union leaders before being presented to the members for ratification. The strike has had a significant impact on the industry, halting and postponing major projects. The WGA leadership will work to persuade members of the deal's merits in the upcoming ratification vote.
