After 8 weeks they can start cutting deals with producers/writers/directors/ just about anyone they don't want anymore. (only exception is those who have strike clauses in their deals-JJ Abrams etc).

Can you go over what exactly entails a strike clause?

[/ QUOTE ]


studios invoke force majeure and cancel deals with producers, writers, basically anyone they want to get rid of. High profile writers/directors/producers usually are smart and add a clause that says they can't be terminated this way.

you'll start seeing this 6-8 weeks after the strike began.
Same goes for agencies etc
