SAG-AFTRA reaches tentative agreement with Hollywood studios in a move to end nearly 4-month strike

The union representing film and television actors has struck a tentative deal with entertainment industry studios on a new labor contract, SAG-AFTRA announced Wednesday, moving the sides closer to ending what has been a contentious nearly four-month strike.

"In a unanimous vote this afternoon, the SAG-AFTRA TV/Theatrical Committee approved a tentative agreement with the AMPTP bringing an end to the 118 day strike," the union said Wednesday in a statement. While the new contract must still be ratified by SAG-AFTRA membership, the union announced the strike will end Thursday at 12:01 a.m.

The details of the agreement were not immediately made available.
