The union representing roughly 11,500 film and television writers and the group that represents the studios and streaming companies announced the preliminary agreement on Sunday. The three-year deal, whose details were not disclosed, needs to be approved by the leadership of the Writers Guild of America and union members to officially end the strike. But even after the approval, it will take longer for productions to resume as Hollywood actors are still on strike. Its shares have dropped nearly 14% since the writers' strike started on May 2, while Paramount, Disney and Netflix have lost between 20% and 45%.

And now it’s fall, when the continent really comes into its own as the leaves – and visitor numbers – start to drop. A recent report from luxury travel network Virtuoso named Paris, London and Florence as the most booked cities for fall travel. “Fall is one of the best times to visit Europe because of the vast variety of interests [the season] can cater to,” says Mina Agnos, president of luxury travel company Travelive. If you’re ready for a different take on Europe this fall, we’ve got ideas. Fall also means it’s harvest time in Rebland – an area southwest of Baden-Baden famous for its Riesling.

Writers Guild of America members walk the picket line on the first day of their strike in front of Amazon studios on Tuesday, May 2, 2023, in Culver City, CA. Talks between the Writers Guild of America and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers resumed last week after months of starts and stops, ultimately leading to a tentative deal that would end the ongoing writers strike. Television and film writers sought protections against the use of artificial intelligence, in addition to increases in compensation for streamed content. Then, the board and council will vote on whether to authorize a contract ratification vote by membership. SAG-AFTRA members have been on strike since mid-July and are seeking contract updates similar to those requested by the writers.

☆ SAG-AFTRA strike: All eyes on actors union following tentative deal between studios and writers
▼ + stars: | 2023-09-25 | by ( Eva Rothenberg | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +4 min

The tentative WGA deal increases pressure on SAG-AFTRA to reach an agreement along the same lines, although the actors union still has enough leverage to keep productions shut down. The studio’s resolution with WGA will likely pave the way for a deal with SAG-AFTRA within the next few weeks. The writers guild was going to fight the big fight, and the actors will use the gains writers made and customize them for their needs.”SAG-AFTRA has been on strike since July 14, joining the fray a little more than two months after the writers strike began. A major issue for the actors union is a wage increase of 11% in the first year of the proposed contract term, while the studios have only agreed to a 5% pay raise. According to Nunan, talks with the WGA will likely make studios more amenable to collaborative talks with SAG-AFTRA.

But when will your favorite shows return? Late-night talk shows were the first to be affected when the strike began, and they may be among the first to return to air now. The actors strike limits promotional appearances that are the lifeblood of late-night shows. “Real Time with Bill Maher.” The host plotted a return without writers but ended up postponing once last week’s negotiations were set. Director Quentin Tarantino's 10th film, “The Movie Critic,” is among the scripts that are written whose makers are awaiting actors' return to sets.

Sept 25 (Reuters) - The Hollywood writers' strike is nearing its end after a preliminary agreement with studios and streaming companies on Sunday after five months of disruption. Writers will also no longer be on the picket lines as the union has asked them to stop protesting. SAG-AFTRA actors and Writers Guild of America (WGA) writers walk the picket line outside Disney Studios in Burbank, California, U.S., July 25, 2023. But for everything else, it could take longer as the actors and performers' union is still on strike. The Screen Actors' Guild (SAG) is considerably larger than the WGA with 160,000 film and television actors, stunt performers and other media professionals.

The Writers Guild of America reached a tentative deal with top entertainment companies on a new contract, ending one of Hollywood’s longest labor disputes and moving the industry closer to restarting. The Writers Guild was able to secure concessions on most of their demands from the studios, including increases in royalty payments for streaming content and guarantees that artificial intelligence will not encroach on writers’ credits and compensation. After 146 days on strike, the deal was reached after five consecutive days of negotiations. The use of A.I., one of the main drivers for writers to call a strike, was the last sticking point. Over the weekend, the studios proposed a few paragraphs to be inserted into the new contract that addressed a guild concern about A.I.
