This is Day 144 of the WGA strike and Day 71 of the SAG-AFTRA strike.
As contract talks between striking writers and their studio counterparts entered a third straight day, picketing in New York City continued Friday at the home of ABC’s The View amid reports and rumors of progress in a stalemate that has lasted 144 days.
On a day when such boldface names as Amy Schumer, Bradley Whitford and Busy Philipps were on the picket line, the real stars of the day might have been a vacationing family from Florida who gave up their tickets to the show to join the strikers. Read more about them below.
“Our heads are all spinning,” Schumer told Deadline after joining the picket Friday. The Emmy-winning comic actor, writer and director responded to a call by the Writers Guild for picket line reinforcements on both coasts and said that of all the issues driving the strike, the rise of artificial intelligence in workplaces like hers is “the thing that’s scaring me the most.”
Schumer also said that striking writers and actors are “trying to be an example” for labor movements globally. “And it feels really good to have so much support behind us,” she said.
