Laz Alonso recalled his days as an aspiring actor trying to break into the industry with the preconceived notion that all actors were rich.
"It's very easy to think all the Hollywood stars or anybody in Hollywood is rich and swimming in money in a swimming pool. That's just not the case," Alonso said as he marched in solidarity with the striking Writer's Guild of America during a picket outside the Amazon Studios lot.
The SAG-AFTRA actors union said 97.91% of ballots cast supported strike authorization. Nearly 65,000 members, or about 48% of those eligible, voted on the measure. "If you are not able to get all the way there, we ask that you use the power given to you by us, the membership, and join the WGA on the picket lines," the letter reads.The iconic Hollywood sign is shown on a hillside above a neighborhood in Los Angeles California, U.S., February 1, 2019.
"We go on auditions all the time, and as an actor, when I get paid is for when I get a job," Tohn said. "But most of the time, I don't get a job.”
