Tom Cruise made unexpected appearance at negotiations between striking Hollywood actors and movie bosses as Kevin Bacon and Hilary Duff join picket line
One person who was in the meeting Cruise joined said his request was “uncomfortable” however, as the guild has explicit rules on “conventions, interviews, tours or promotion via social media of any struck work or struck companies.”Both groups agreed to extend their contract until July 12, with the hope of reaching a deal in this time, but they failed to reach an agreement.
Barry Diller, the former CEO of Paramount and co-founder of Fox network, suggested on Sunday that the industry’s top actors – such as Cruise – should take a 25% pay cut. He also said the entertainment industry is at risk of an “absolute collapse” if the strike isn’t wrapped up soon. “So, you're gonna see subscriptions get pulled, which is going to reduce the revenue of all these movie companies, television companies, the result of which is that there will be no programs. And at just the time, strike is settled that you want to get back up, there won't be enough money.”
