More than 1,000 people marched in support of striking actors.
Pat Reidy joined a march and rally for striking actors Thursday in Chicago, holding a sign that featured a copy of a seven-cent residual check he received. Above and below the image he wrote, “Strike!!! Because this suuucks.
”, where he appeared in five episodes over three seasons. “It cost them more to mail it to me,” Reidy told. “We went to the negotiating table in good faith and ended up having to come here and sweat our asses off in the Chicago heat just to get people to hear us. … We have to fight every step of the way. It’s beyond frustrating to me.”
