Negotiators for the Writers Guild of America and Hollywood’s major studios will resume contract talks on Wednesday to try and end a work stoppage that has disrupted production for more than four months.
The WGA, in a note to members on Monday, encouraged its writers to continue picketing outside studio offices until an agreement is reached.
The WGA called a work stoppage in May when it could not reach a deal with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers , which represents Netflix, Walt Disney Co and other major media companies.
Writers are seeking higher compensation and protections around use of artificial intelligence.
