The WGA and studios have reached an "exceptional" tentative agreement after a 146-day strike
After five months of strikes and negotiations for writers in Hollywood, a tentative agreement has been met.
On Sunday, September 25, after a 146-day writer's strike, the Writers Guild of America and studios have reached a deal that the Writer's guild calls "exceptional."
"We can say, with great pride, that this deal is exceptional," the Writer's Guild of America' statement reads. "With meaningful gains and protections for writers in every sector of the membership."
Author Neil Gaiman wrote on X earlier today spreading the news.
The science fiction/fantasy author has had numerous novels portrayed on the big screen such as the 2007 film Stardust, starring Robert De Nero, Prime Video's 2019 Good Omens, starring David Tennant, and the 2022 Netflix series The Sandman, starring Tom Sturridge, based off of Gaiman's graphic novel.
This deal is deemed "tentative" because union members still need to vote on the final contract and details of the contract have not been made public.
Rather, the WGA published their "Negotiations Update: Tentative Agreement" stating that they cannot share details "until the last i is dotted."
