Members of SAG-AFTRA picketed outside the Disney lot in Burbank this week and weighed in on the recent meeting between guild leadership and A-listers.
Amid few signs that leaders of SAG-AFTRA and the major studios are ready to resume bargaining, hundreds of striking actors picketed outside Walt Disney Studios and other locations around Los Angeles on Thursday in a show of support for the union's nearly 100-day walkout. Underneath the entrance to the Disney lot in Burbank, strike captains greeted demonstrators and welcomed them to “Day 98” of the strike.
' The latest Disney picket occurred days after several A-list actors — including George Clooney, Tyler Perry, Ben Affleck, Emma Stone and Scarlett Johansson — met via Zoom with guild leadership to discuss strategies to restart negotiations and end the strike , according to sources familiar with the gathering who were not authorized to comment.
