As the writers strike continues with no apparent end any time soon, many have been wondering what directors will do. The combination of pressure from the writers and from writer-directors (who are members of both guilds) has caused the Directors Guild of America to move its talks into the new year, reports Show Tracker.
In response to the talks between writers and studios that broke down last week, the DGA stated, “We are deeply disappointed by the breakdown … Like everyone else in the industry, we had hoped that the two parties would be able to reach a fair and reasonable deal.”
The directors’ contract expires June 30.
