It comes one day after Deadline reported that the two sides reached a breakthrough regarding the use of artificial intelligence. The outlet cited a guild source who said they are “very close with strong protection language in place.”
Burbank mayor Konstantine Anthony, who is also a SAG-AFTRA member, said as an actor, he’s encouraged by the progress.
“As the mayor of a studio town, I'm very relieved that we are finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel,” he said.
Cyan McClairian, an actress and screenwriter, said she doesn’t have a lot of faith in the AMPTP.
“But honestly, we are in that time period right now that it should be solved. I mean, it should have been solved on day one,” she said.
The actors have been on strike since July 14.
