EXCLUSIVE: The Buchwald agency has signed the WGA’s new franchise agreement
on Monday. Buchwald said its negotiated agreement includes several improvements to the recently signed Kaplan Stahler agreement, and said it “now becomes the first mid-sized, full-service agency to sign the guild’s franchise agreement.”
These and other modifications to the old code, including a new provision that allows writers to object to their agents turning over their confidential contract information to the guild, has led to what many believe will be a steady stream of mid-tier agencies signing the guild’s new franchise agreement.
In a statement today citing that story, the guild said that “Our goal remains to move the negotiation process forward with all unsigned agencies.” None of the Big Four packaging agencies – WME, CAA, UTA and ICM Partners – is expected to agree to the guild’s terms anytime soon, if ever. And together, they were responsible for nearly all of TV packaging.nearly 90% of all scripted TV shows were packaged by talent agencies
