In the last 48 hours, nearly five thousand actors have signed a letter directed at the SAG-Aftra union stating that they would 'rather go on strike than take a bad deal.' The letter, which was published late Thursday night and written by some of the union's strike captains, has been obtained by NBC News.
Three sources familiar with the negotiations told NBC News that progress was made on numerous issues during Thursday’s negotiations, with one source saying “it feels like the end is in sight.” But two of those three sources said that Friday’s meeting had been “challenging,” with one saying, “It’s a volatile situation, both sides are far apart on some key issues.” NBC News has reached out to both SAG-AFTRA and the AMPTP for comment.
