The Actors’ Union makes exceptions for projects to be filmed during the strike

With the ongoing strike of actors and writers, the recordings of several films and series have been paralyzed in recent weeks. Thinking about the delay of some productions that could continue, since they already have a script ready, the actors’ union (SAG-AFTRA) has decided to make an exception for 39 projects to continue filming.

According to Varietyamong the approved projects there are two feature films by A24: Mother Mary, with Anne Hathaway and Michaela Coel, e The death of a unicorn, with Paul Rudd and Jenna Ortega. While the production company has notoriety, it is considered independent and is not affiliated with the Alliance of Film and Television Producers (AMPTP), the basis of the exception.

Other securities benefiting from the SAG decision are:

The full list has not been released by the media. SAG continues to evaluate other productions that meet the terms and can proceed with filming.

For Duncan Crabtree-Ireland, executive director of the union, the fact that the independent productions are moving forward under the terms of the SAG weakens the AMPTP’s argument that the union’s demands are “unrealistic”.

Among the recent paused productions is The Sandman AND dead pool 3making it the first major Marvel film to be impacted by the actors’ strike.
