EXPLAINER-Is the Hollywood actors’ strike over?

Hollywood actors on Tuesday approved a three-year contract with major studios and streamers, formally ending the six months of labor disputes that had brought the industry to a standstill. Members of the SAG-AFTRA union had already returned to work in November after a preliminary deal that offered higher pay and protections against unauthorized use of images generated by artificial intelligence (AI). The union said 78% of those who voted supported the deal with Netflix Walt Disney and other members of the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers.
