WGA Puts Producer Steve Small On Strike/Unfair List Over Financial Concerns On Films Including John Travolta’s ‘Cash Out’
deadline.comEXCLUSIVE: The Writers Guild of America has placed producer Steve Small and his company Fifty Feet Movie, LLC on the union’s Strike/Unfair List over financial concerns on multiple films.
A memo sent to members on Wednesday points to Article 42 of the 2023 Minimum Basic Agreement, which allowed the guild to demand a surety bond from Fifty Feet “after determining that it is not financially responsible and is unlikely to meet its MBA obligations connection with multiple theatrical motion picture projects.” Those films include the John Travolta starrer Cash Out, as well as two Sylvester Stallone pics, Alarum and The Epiphany.
To date, the WGA says that Fifty Feet has not posted the bond, prompting the placement on the Strike/Unfair List, which prohibits members from working for or optioning or selling material to those companies.
The WGA also called attention to Small’s other company, Convergence Entertainment Group, LLC, the corporate guarantor for Fifty Feet.
