American Actors Guild not ready to accept movie studios final offer

The actors’ strike could be coming to a close if the American Screen Actors guild accepts the “Last, Best & Final” offer from major film studios – but the two sides have yet to reach an agreement on the use of AI.

The Hollywood Reporter (THR) is saying the actors’ guild cannot agree to the offer when it still contains a clause that would allow entertainment companies to re-use AI scans of actors without their consent, including after their death.

Actors within the guild have voiced scepticism over the phrasing of the proposal. Actor Elijah Wood responded to the claim of a “final” offer on Sunday, saying “we’ll be the judge of that”.
