The Writers Guild of America’s first strike in fifteen years began on May 2 over broken agreements with Netflix, Amazon, Apple, Disney, Warner Bros. Discovery, NBC Universal, Paramount and Sony.
The ongoing strike costs the California economy $30 million per day, according to the Writers Guild. Writing about it Deadline.
It is noted that this figure is based on the estimate of the Milken Institute that the 100-day strike in 2007-2008 cost the state economy approximately $ 2.1 billion, that is, almost $ 21 million per day.
If it also lasts for 100 days, then the economy of the state may suffer a loss to the tune of three billion dollars.
As part of the strike, all screenwriters at the Guild stopped their professional activities. Screenwriters are demanding better working conditions from studios, including higher wages.
It was previously reported that Australian actress Mia Wasikowska for the first time said why she gave up on life in Hollywood.
