Writers Guild and Hollywood Studios Close to Ending Strike, Actors Still Negotiating

Union leaders and Hollywood studios have reached a tentative agreement to end the historic screenwriters strike after nearly five months, but no deal has been made yet for striking actors. The three-year contract agreement, reached after renewed talks, must be approved by the guild's board and members. While nightly network shows could return to the air soon, talks between studios and striking actors have not resumed. The strike has disrupted late-night talk shows, scripted shows, and film productions, causing significant delays.
