While Viola Davis' upcoming movie G20 reached a temporary agreement with SAG-AFTRA to continue filming, she is taking a step back amid the ongoing union strike.
“This is a very seminal hour for us. I went in thinking that we would be able to avert a strike. The gravity of this move is not lost on me,” Drescher, 65, said in a press conference on July 13. “It’s, if not millions of people all across this country and around the world. Not only members of this union but people who work in other industries that service the people that work in this industry. … We had no choice.
We are the victims here. We are being victimized by a very greedy entity.”According to the terms of the strike, unionized actors are forbidden from filming TV and movie projects and, have been able to continue production with the use of a temporary waiver from SAG-AFTRA if they agree to met the union’s demands for its stars. Other international productions have also continued as normal as their actors are unionized under Equity and not SAG-AFTRA.
