Film and TV workers won’t go on strike after all following a last-minute deal with major studios over working conditions. The International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) and the Alliance of Motion Pictures and Television Producers (AMPTP) have been going back and forth on a deal to avoid a strike since May.
They hit an impasse in September and negotiating stopped, and on Oct. 3 the IATSE authorized a strike, with 98 per cent support from the group. The strike was set for Oct. 18 at midnight, and it would mark the first strike in the 128-year-history of the organization.
