Hollywood writers have reached a tentative deal with major studios and streaming services, possibly ending a nearly five-month strike and a near-total shutdown of television and movie production.
The Writers Guild of America (WGA) told the union’s 11,000 writers on Sept. 24 that negotiators had reached an agreement on a new three-year contract with the Alliance of Motion Pictures and Television Producers (AMPTP) after returning to the bargaining table on Sept. 20.
