BREAKING: 'They’re off to write their picket signs.' The cast of Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer, which includes Florence Pugh, Cillian Murphy, Matt Damon and Emily Blunt has walked out of their UK premiere in solidarity with the actors’ strike.
‘Hopefully we get to a resolution quickly. No one wants a work stoppage, but we’ve got to get a fair deal.’: ‘I hope everyone makes a fair deal, and we are here to celebrate this movie. And if they call it, we’ll be leaving together as cast in unity with everyone.
‘We are gonna have to. We are gonna have to. We will see what happens. Right now it’s the joy to be together.’ The strike news comes after the US union and Hollywood studios failed to reach an agreement after more than four weeks of negotiations, with actors wanting better pay and increased safeguarding around artificial intelligence rights among their demands.The union directed all its members to immediately stop working on all scripted film and TV around the world.
It is now anticipated the strike will affect upcoming award shows, premieres, events, and film festivals around the world, including the Toronto and Venice film festivals, and the 75th Emmys. The likes of Doctor Who, Emily in Paris, House of the Dragon, The White Lotus, and more huge 2023/2024 projects are also likely to be impacted.
