What attracts viewers and advertisers for each international award? The appearance of famous actors, directors and producers in it!
But the artists’ strike in the United States is only gaining momentum, and the first stars are also participating in it. For this reason, of course, they are not up to the pretentious presentation of awards.
In addition, the current strike is so massive that the Emmy ceremony, scheduled for September 18, is not only postponed, it is not even forecast its new date!
The actors are determined to fight to the end. Since July 13, they are demanding higher salaries, deductions from programs on streaming services and the introduction of restrictions on the use of artificial intelligence in films and television.
But so far there have been no significant advances in the conflict with the bosses.
Therefore, the organizers of the award made the following statement:
“Like the rest of the industry, we hope that a fair and timely solution can be found for all parties in the current union negotiations. We continue to monitor the situation closely with our partners at Fox and will update if new information becomes available.”
By the way
The Emmy Awards have been postponed for the first time since 2001. But then the organizers themselves did it: because of the terrorist attack on the United States on September 11 and the military operations in Afghanistan.
Now, for the first time, thanks to the actors who have decided to declare their claims and rights.
