SAG-AFTRA Strike Explained: TV Shows, Movies Affected

What will be affected?

Basically, any union show that kept going during the WGA strike. Some shows that were paused due to the WGA strike included Stranger Things, Saturday Night Live, The Last of Us, and Yellowjackets. 

Some shows did continue, including House of the Dragon, American Horror Story, and The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power — but it appears they’ll be unlikely to continue now. As such, it might take some months — or years — before the full impact of the dual strike is felt.

Some movies that will likely cease production in the wake of the SAG-AFTRA strike include Wicked, Gladiator 2, Deadpool 3, and Beetlejuice 2. 

This will also likely mean that the promotion of movies and TV shows will grind to a halt. Yup, no red carpets — including the Venice and Toronto film festivals — and no Emmy For Your Consideration campaigns. 

Some have suggested that the WGA strike would lead to an increase in reality TV, but it’s likely that plenty of hosts and judges are SAG-AFTRA members.
