Many of the actors’ demands mirror those of the writers, whose own strike had already brought many productions to a halt. Actors and screenwriters have not been on strike at the same time since 1960, when Marilyn Monroe was still near her peak. The first distress signal for the studios came in early June when roughly 65,000 members of the actors’ union — nearly 98 percent of voters — backed authorizing a strike. The actors’ walkout would provide additional support to the striking writers, who have been walking picket lines for more than 70 days. Read more about the writers’ strike.

The actors could be on strike themselves without a last-minute deal with studios and streaming services on Wednesday. Production of many movies and television shows have already been shut down by the current writers strike. An actors strike would bring most remaining productions to a halt, other than on some independent films not associated with studios. This would be the first actors strike against television shows and movie productions since 1980. Just before the last deadline, it seemed as if an actors strike could be avoided.

[1/2] People attend a demonstration held by the Writers Guild of America as the film and TV writers' strike continues, in Los Angeles, California, U.S., June 21, 2023. SAG-AFTRA, Hollywood's largest union, is demanding higher compensation in the streaming TV era plus safeguards around the use of artificial intelligence (AI). They would join about 11,500 members of the Writers Guild of America (WGA), who went on strike in early May. A strike by SAG-AFTRA would force more sets to shut down and pile pressure on studios to find a resolution. The studios and the WGA have not held talks since the writers' strike began on May 2.

LOS ANGELES, June 30 (Reuters) - Hollywood's actors union and major Hollywood studios agreed on Friday to keep negotiating through mid-July, staving off the immediate threat of a second labor strike in the entertainment business this summer. SAG-AFTRA voted in early June to give its leaders the authority to call a work stoppage if talks were to break down. Negotiations were taking place during a difficult time for Hollywood studios. The studios and the WGA have not held talks since the writers' strike began on May 2. The last writers' strike in 2007 and 2008 cost the California economy an estimated $2.1 billion.

New York CNN —A union representing about 160,000 actors has put plans to go on strike against major studios and streaming services on hold. But that doesn’t mean that a strike will now be avoided, said Jonathan Handel, an entertainment lawyer and writer and author of a book on the 2007-08 writers strike, “Hollywood on Strike!

The letter came after union negotiators issued a video saying their talks had been "extremely productive," a possible sign that a deal was within reach. A strike by SAG-AFTRA, which represents 160,000 actors, would turn up the heat on Hollywood studios already grappling with a nearly two-month work stoppage by the Writers Guild of America (WGA). Any ongoing filming would have to halt if actors also strike. The studios and the WGA have not held talks since the writers' strike began on May 2. The last writers' strike in 2007 and 2008 cost the California economy an estimated $2.1 billion.

"It's very easy to think all the Hollywood stars or anybody in Hollywood is rich and swimming in money in a swimming pool. The SAG-AFTRA actors union said 97.91% of ballots cast supported strike authorization. But the solidarity from high-wattage talent could be a boost for actors struggling to land enough gigs to make ends meet. Tohn believes only the highest echelon of actors are working all the time.

But ahead of a potential Hollywood writers' strike, the streamer faces two key vulnerabilities. Hollywood is bracing for a possible writers' strike that could begin at midnight PT, following an overwhelming strike authorization by members of the Writers' Guild of America West and East last month. But, by comparison, Prime Video, Netflix, and Discovery+ offer viewers thousands of TV series, according to ReelGood data from the end of 2022. "They're building a long-term brand of Apple TV+, which is something apart from all their devices and their cool software. It would not damage the perception that people have of Apple TV+."

The video, which has nearly 60,000 likes, is among a proliferation of TikTok posts tagged with the names of semaglutide weight-loss drugs, including Wegovy and Ozempic. "What drives the video to go viral is if you can generate some kind of discussion," he told Insider. Unlike official ads, partnerships, or promotions, TikTok posts receive little oversight from government agencies or medical boards. All four said the TikTok posts are driving an influx of patients to their clinics. Oden told Insider that her videos are "drumming up quite a bit of new business" among patients of all ages.
LOS ANGELES, Dec 14 (Reuters) - Comedian Eddie Murphy will accept a lifetime achievement honor next month at the Golden Globes, the annual ceremony that is trying to restore its reputation in Hollywood after a diversity and ethics scandal. The Hollywood Foreign Press Association, the group that votes on the Globe winners, announced on Wednesday that Murphy would receive the Cecil B. DeMille award to celebrate his contributions to entertainment. Previous DeMille award recipients have included Oprah Winfrey, Meryl Streep, Sophia Loren, Tom Hanks, Jane Fonda and Robert De Niro. The honor for Murphy adds a big name to the Globes telecast on Jan. 10. The Globes were tainted after a 2021 Los Angeles Times investigation probed the HFPA's practices and revealed the organization had no Black members.

The ruse for new chauffeurs began with telling them about the next day's route for Pitt and Jolie in advance.

CNN —Emily Blunt would be more than game to return to the role that made her one of film’s most iconic fashion mean girls. Hathaway, whose career also skyrocketed thanks to “Prada,” shared a bit more hesitation around the prospect of a sequel when she visited “The View” just last week. Now, everything’s gone so digital, and that movie centered around the concept of producing a physical thing. It’s just very different now.”“Although, it is tempting to think about Andy and Emily needing to get Miranda her coffee and she’s somewhere in Europe,” she added. “And then along the way they pick up Stanley Tucci in Italy, who’s at a restaurant.
CNN —Rumor has it, Adele isn’t just a great singer – she’s also great at career advice. That is, at least, according to Jennifer Lawrence. Regarding her 2016 movie “Passengers,” which co-starred Chris Pratt and stands as one of the less acclaimed films of her decorated career, Lawrence said, “Adele told me not to do it! “I was like, ‘Oh no, you guys are here because I’m here, and I’m here because you’re here. Wait, who decided that this was a good movie?’” the actress told the Times.

(video) Recomandări de la Mircea, fără spoilere: acum pe Netflix – cinci filme existențiale care te vor ajuta să înțelegi cine eștiCând eram copil, obișnuiam să cred că toate familiile sunt la fel, că au aceleași probleme, rutină și model de educație. Cu acest gând și pentru că totul începe din familie, am pregătit o listă de filme disponibile pe Netflix, despre cinci modele de familii disfuncționale și despre dificultățile cu care se confruntă acestea. O poveste profund personală, chiar înfricoșătoare, în care o femeie învață să trăiască purtând în suflet durerea unei pierderi copleșitoare. Prezentarea cu umor a unei lumi crude pe care o recunoști sau de care trebuie să te bucuri că n-a trebuit să o înfrunți. Boyhood este atât o capsulă nostalgică trecutului recent, cât și o odă adusă maturizării și educării unui copil.

Arnold Schwarzenegger va juca împreună cu tânăra actriţa Monica Barbaro într-un serial de spionaj produs de Netflix, relatează EFE.Proiectul va marca debutul lui Schwarzenegger pe micile ecrane, în rolul unui tată care descoperă că fiica sa este, la rândul ei, o agentă sub acoperire a CIA cu care trebuie să colaboreze, potrivit unui comunicat publicat joi de platforma Netflix.De mai multe luni circulau zvonuri că interpretul lui "Terminator" îşi va face debutul în televiziune, după ce mai multe staruri de la Hollywood, precum Julia Roberts sau Meryl Streep, au jucat în producţii difuzate pe micile ecrane, scrie agerpres.ro Partenera sa de distribuţie, Monica Barbaro, a mai jucat în filme de acţiune şi va putea fi văzută curând în pelicula "Top Gun: Maverick" alături de Tom Cruise.Gigantul de streaming prevede inţial un sezon de opt episoade de câte o oră.În pofida noului său proiect pe micile ecrane, Schwarzenegger a făcut miercuri apel, în cadrul unui eveniment organizat la Los Angeles de Asociaţia Naţională a Proprietarilor de Cinematografe, la o întoarcere a publicului în sălile de cinema în perspectiva încheierii pandemiei de coronavirus în SUA. "Este momentul să ne despărţim de această perioadă de pandemie şi să ne întoarcem în faţa marilor ecrane", a declarat actorul, fost guvernator al Californiei între 2003 şi 2011. "Da, am fost într-un an pandemic, iar publicul a fost nevoit să vadă filme pe telefon sau pe tabletă... Şi a pierdut efectele vizuale oferite de marile ecrane", a precizat Schwarzenegger.
