WGA, studios reportedly in 'final phase' of talks
The Writers Guild of America (WGA) is in the "final phase" of negotiations with Hollywood studios, CNN reported, following months of strikes. Sources said that it is likely that "nearly all the major issues had been resolved" as major studio executives are no longer present at meetings.
A previous report claimed a deal could be reached on Thursday but talks continued for the rest of the week. The details of the potential agreement between the WGA and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers are currently unknown, but the writers have been pushing for better pay and job protection in light of the rapid development of artificial intelligence.
