An insider's view on Hollywood's crippling strikes

Hollywood has ground to a halt after the the Screen Actors Guild – American Federation of Television and Radio Artists – the biggest union representing actors and production staff decided to join writers in going on strike for better pay and conditions.

It’s the first time in 60 years both groups have gone on strike at the same time – and it means production on television, streaming and movies has stopped.

In this episode of The Briefing, we’re joined by Kym Jackson, a member of SAG-AFTRA to explain what it means for the future of Hollywood and the film industry here in Australia.

Headlines:

  • Ben Roberts-Smith plague addition at war memorial
  • Biggest scalp from Robodebt royal commission
  • Gina Rinehart in court battle for multibillion-dollar Hancock mining spoils
  • Twitter turns to X
