The WGA and the Alliance of Motion Picture & Television Producers will begin negotiations for a new film and TV contract on March 20. “The AMPTP is fully committed to reaching a fair and reasonable deal that brings strength and stability to the industry,” the AMPTP said in a statement Wednesday.
The WGA’s current contract expires May 1. The DGA has gone first in each of the past three three-year bargaining cycles, even though its contracts expire at the same time as SAG-AFTRA’s – on June 30.
Earlier this month, however, the DGA said it wouldn’t be the first guild at the bargaining table this year because “the studios are not yet prepared to address our key issues.” The last time the DGA didn’t go first was in 2010, when pre-merger SAG and AFTRA came to the bargaining table first.
The last time the WGA went first, back in 2007, resulted in a 100-day writers strike. By subscribing, I agree to the Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.
