Hollywood Actors’ Strike Already Affects Production of Several Films with Shutdown of Recordings and Could Lead to Several Release Delays
The decision of The Hollywood Actors Union, SAG-AFTRA, goes on strike it made not only the film and television industry uncomfortable, but also the public itself. With actors and actresses folding their arms for the first time in over 40 years, the direct reflection is that filming any type of production is paralysed. As a result, the premieres of highly anticipated films and series are under scrutiny.

That’s because, without your stars, it’s impossible to film anything. Under SAG-AFTRA rules, no unionized artist may participate in any type of registration for studios or act in advertising projects or participate in events. In this way, even the productions that were already filming had to stop everything until the situation had normalized.
This also explains why the actors’ strike had far more repercussions than the longer-lasting writers’ strike. In these cases, studios have been able to work around disruptions by using already finished scripts or even bringing in non-union professionals. With artists, however, this substitution is not so easy.
In this way, the recording of many films and series has stopped while several other projects that were about to start will have to wait a little longer to kick off: the public’s great doubt is knowing what they are.
dead pool 3
dead pool 3 it is the most remembered example among the films affected by the actors’ strike. The character’s debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) saw the release of the first official images, which thrilled fans with the pace of filming. However, the stop has already been confirmed.
The film was also very popular with forwards because Marvel Studios and disney he managed to start recording even with the writers’ strike going on. This is because Reynolds is known for his improvisation during filming and this is considered by the unions to be a form of writing and therefore could not be done while the category is paralysed.
In this way, the release of dead pool 3 in May 2024 it becomes uncertainty. The dribble the studio had made with the script was a way to secure its schedule, but now production will inevitably be delayed, and depending on how long the category is down, not only will the hero film be delayed but all the other previews of the Marvel.
Mission: Impossible – Reckoning: Part 2
The new Mission: Impossible – Reckoning: Part 1 neither hit theaters right away and its sequel becomes anyone’s guess. This because Part 2 it hasn’t been registered yet and the strikes will definitely impact the whole development. Especially since Paramount Pictures itself had already changed the release date due to the writers’ hiatus, which means joining the actors complicates planning even more.
Therefore, it is almost impossible to imagine that the conclusion of the story of Tom Cruise against the evil artificial intelligence takes place on June 28, 2024, as planned by the studio. While no official comment has yet been made, it is almost certain that a postponement will be announced soon, and the length of the strike will determine how long that delay lasts.
gladiator 2
The unexpected sequence of the film with Russell Crowe is another major production whose recordings were stopped as soon as the strike broke out. The film stars Paul Mescal (after sun) is being filmed in Morocco and was one of the first films to announce its hiatus.
With that, this too will eventually have to end up being postponed. The initial forecast was that it would hit theaters on Nov. 22, 2024, but the work stoppage will surely force Paramount to revise that schedule. Therefore, it is entirely possible that we will only see the long coming in 2025.
Mortal combat 2
Another sequence where he stopped everything was worth it Mortal combat 2. A Warner Bros. had already started recording the Sequel to the 2021 film and even made some casting announcements to get fans involved. However, the strike stalled work, even with filming in Australia and a good number of non-union actors.
This is because the Oceania country union has advised that SAG-AFTRA-related productions that are registering there must respect the disruptions.
Lama
The movie that was supposed to introduce the vampire hero to the MCU appears to be cursed. After being delayed a few times by a series of pre-production issues, including a change of director and an almost-from-scratch script, it’s now the strike that will prevent filming from starting.
The film had already been moved from 2024 to February 14, 2025, but it’s almost certain that that date will change again if the strike goes on for longer. After all, the registration hasn’t started yet, and a longer pause could further disrupt the already complicated registration process Lama back to screens.
Avatars 3
Not even one of the most profitable film franchises escapes the actors’ strike. After all, underneath all of Na’Vi’s visual effects are a colossal amount of professionals at work who have to sit idly by indefinitely.
Nothing has been said about the state of production so far. However, the sequence had already been pushed back recently due to the writers’ hiatus, which is only getting worse with SAG-AFTRA’s decision.
Cockroach juice 2
Tim Burton’s success in Wandinha and the return of Michael Keaton In The flash got everyone excited Cockroach juice 2the defunct sequel to the excellent Ghosts have fun. The feature film had already been shot in London and according to people connected to the production, the recordings were nearing completion.
However, the July 13 strike announcement may have had an impact and forced the feature to halt activities already nearing completion. Even so, precisely because it is almost over, it may be that the prediction of 6 September 2024 will be kept – if the strike ends soon, of course.
Poison 3
Another hero movie that will have to finish is Poison 3. Filming on the new chapter in the saga of the anti-hero played by Tom Hardy had just started in Spain. However, even with the work taking place in the European country, most of the cast are unionized.
According to Variety, the actors participating in the film were already warned of the strike earlier in the week and were just waiting for the official announcement to join the strike.
