Actors need no prompting to share joy over deal ending Hollywood strike

Roughly a month after writers ended a similar strike, Sag-Aftra and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers - which  represents Walt Disney, Netflix and other media companies - reached a tentative deal, ending the longest ever strike by film and television actors.

The actor and Sag-Aftra president, Fran Drescher, posted: "We did it!!!!" and thanked her fellow union members "for hanging in and holding out for this historic deal".

At the premiere of his wrestling film The Iron Claw, the actor Zac Efron described the deal as "incredible", while his co-star Jeremy Allen White exclaimed, "That's amazing!" after hearing the strike was over while being interviewed on the red carpet.
