12/31/2023 0 Comments Shut in movie poster 2016![]() ![]() Here’s SAG-AFTRA president Fran Drescher on the strike announcement: Actors have long been unhappy with reduced residuals brought about by streaming services and are displeased by studios claiming they can’t pay more while company CEOs earn millions. Much like the Writers’ Guild, the actors’ unions had been negotiating with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) to secure a new contract. This represents the first time in decades that two branches of filmmaking unions have been on strike at the same time. Many movies and shows had already been delayed by the writers’ strike, and the actors’ action promises to affect output even further. The third ‘Deadpool’, which also features Hugh Jackman’s return as Wolverine, had been shooting in the UK, and it’s clear the strike is having a global impact as other productions, such as the ‘ Mortal Kombat’ sequel, which had been filming in Australia, are also shutting down. And yet… it kept going, with no official explanation other than the fact that the script had already been written.īut now, as SAG-AFTRA –– the union that represents actors –– joins the writers on the picket line, ‘Deadpool 3’ is among the productions shutting down. Given how much of the ‘ Deadpool’ movies have been written on the fly, you might have expected the latest –– ‘ Deadpool 3’ to shut down when the Writers Guild of America went out on strike earlier this year. Hugh Jackman will return as Wolverine in Marvel Studios' 'Deadpool 3.' ![]()
