Hollywood’s striking writers and major studios have agreed to hold talks on Friday for the first time since their strike began over higher pay demands in May, the Writers Guild of America (WGA) said on Tuesday.
The Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP), reached out to the WGA and requested for a meeting, the WGA negotiating committee told its members in a statement that was shared with Reuters.
“We’ll be back in communication with you sometime after the meeting with further information,” the committee told its members in its note.

An AMPTP spokesperson told Reuters that the alliance was committed to finding a mutually beneficial deal, without giving further details.
The strike by about 11,500 writers has led to late-night shows canceling new episodes, disrupted most production for the fall TV season and halted work on big-budget movies.
