Netflix brings back the iconic crying kid meme to promote the upcoming film "Spy Kids: Armageddon."

The ongoing strikes by the Writers Guild of America and SAG-AFTRA are forcing Hollywood studios to scrap media tours and restrict talent-driven publicity for their films, resulting in potential box office earnings being hurt by up to 15 percent.

The inability of stars to actively promote their films has raised concerns in the industry, as the cultural impact and awareness generated by their involvement cannot be replicated through paid advertising alone. Studios are making changes to their release calendars and considering the risks of staying the course if the strikes are not resolved.
