"The Writers Guild of America West said on X that its negotiating committee unanimously approved a tentative agreement with The Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers, which represents studios."
"The precise terms of the deals were not immediately announced, but it is expected to include several writers' priorities such as better health care plans and more protections against artificial intelligence."
"The current contract was set to expire in May, and the studios were also working on new deals with union leaders representing actors and directors, whose contracts are set to expire at the end of June."
The Writers Guild of America West and The Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers reached a surprise four-year tentative agreement after three weeks of negotiations. The deal is expected to include better health care plans and protections against artificial intelligence. The agreement must be approved by the guild's board and members before ratification. This agreement contrasts with the previous contentious negotiations that led to a historic strike. Studios are also negotiating with actors and directors whose contracts are expiring soon.
