“I want to be in these Netflix shows, I want to be in the Hulu shows, but we’re standing by the writers, we’re standing by SAG,” Ms. Giulietti said.
She said she was living at home with her parents in Cheshire, Conn., and putting off renting an apartment in New York City while she saw how the strike — which, along with a writers’ strike, could go on for months — would affect her income.
The last time Hollywood’s screen actors and writers went on strike, social media platforms and the $5 billion influencer industry didn’t exist.
A number of creators have pledged support for writers and actors and circulated “scab” lists of influencers who promote new releases or appear at related events.
Others have been frustrated or confused by instructions from a union that doesn’t protect them, and that some had never heard of.
