Will the US screenwriter's strike last at least 100 days?
Market Rules
After failed negotiations between the Writers Guild of America (WGA) and Hollywood film and TV studios, US screenwriters started a strike. Some of the demands from the WGA include assuring that adaptations and literary material can’t be generated by Artificial Intelligence, renegotiating the episode rate cap, and establishing a minimum number of writers per TV show.
The last WGA strike happened in 2007 and 2008 and lasted 100 days. If the WGA strike that started in May 2023 lasts at least 100 days, this market will resolve to “Yes”.
