has finally signed SAG-AFTRA’s film and TV contact. Up until now, Netflix has produced shows under the guild’s contract through third parties, but this is the first agreement the union has signed directly with the giant streaming service.
The new deal, which with a few exceptions follows the union’s Codified Basic Agreement and Television Agreements, was overwhelmingly approved by the National Board at its one-day videoconference plenary today. The agreement expires on June 30, 2022. “I want to salute the contracts staff led by chief contracts officer Ray Rodriguez for its incredible work on this historic agreement,” said SAG-AFTRA national executive director David White. “As Netflix continues to ramp up its series and feature film production, it can do so more efficiently under this bilateral agreement, which provides enhanced terms and protections for all our members.
