The Hollywood labor battle could expand next week.
The Screen Actors Guild is in the final hours of negotiations with Hollywood producers. If a deal is not reached by midnight Friday, at least 160,000 performers plan to join striking writers on the picket line.
There are whispers of a tentative deal, however. Last week, SAG President Fran Drescher released a video where she said the negotiations have been productive and promised a “seminal” deal.While shoots have been limited since the writers’ strike began in May, certain shows have progressed. If the actors join the writers, film production will come to a halt.
