Gene Maddaus Senior Media Writer The Writers Guild of America and other Hollywood unions on Wednesday called on the studios to reach a “fair contract” with the Directors Guild of America.
In a statement, the unions said that such a contract would benefit “every worker” in the industry. “A fair contract for directors does not benefit just a select few; it uplifts every worker in the film and television industry and acknowledges the interconnected nature of our work,” said the statement issued by the WGA, SAG-AFTRA, IATSE and the Hollywood Basic Crafts. “We call on the AMPTP to immediately negotiate a fair agreement that addresses the Directors Guild of America’s unique priorities in good faith.” The DGA has been negotiating since May 10.
It has less than a week left to go before SAG-AFTRA begins its round of bargaining on June 7. Both the DGA and SAG-AFTRA contracts expire on June 30.
The WGA has been on strike for 30 days. WGA leaders have already indicated to members that the DGA is likely to reach a deal.
