SAG-AFTRA Considers Studios' 'Last, Best, and Final' Offer

SAG-AFTRA may take an additional day to respond to the studios' "last, best and final" offer as the union's negotiating committee evaluates their next move. Some committee members expressed dissatisfaction with the offer and urged A-list actors to pressure studio heads for better terms. The studios' offer includes a success-based bonus structure in streaming, but the union is holding out for a cut of total streaming revenue and stronger protections against the use of AI. The studios have indicated that this offer is non-negotiable, but the union can push back and remains on strike.
