Entertainment mogul Tyler Perry joins 'CBS Mornings' to discuss the new documentary about his life. 'Maxine's Baby: The Tyler Perry Story' is an intimate portrait of Perry's road to the top of an industry that didn't always include him.
With the strike having now reached its 117th day, SAG-AFTRA and AMPTP are reportedly planning to meet again today to see if an agreement can be reached on the studios & streamers' 'Last, Best & Final' offer that leads to a new three-year deal for the union. Heading into this afternoon, the rumblings were that the studios & streamers' language regarding the recording & cataloging of the likenesses of actors for future use was a huge red flag for the union.
While owning right up front that he is 'a studio head and an owner of a streamer,' Perry offered a number of examples to make his point that he also has an 'understanding how it is for the working actor' and that 'I get what we're fighting for.' From there, Perry praised SAG-AFTRA President Fran Drescher and SAG-AFTRA Chief Negotiator Duncan Crabtree-Ireland – before wondering if the negotiating committee isn't pushing for too much at this point.
