Hollywood’s actors have voted to ratify the deal with studios that ended their strike after nearly four months, bringing an official finish to the labor strife that shook the entertainment industry for most of 2023.

Actors voted to approve a new three-year contract with studios, although some union members remained dissatisfied with the deal’s artificial intelligence protections. The ratification formally ended six months of labor unrest in the entertainment industry.

LOS ANGELES -- Hollywood's actors have voted to ratify the deal with studios that ended their strike after nearly four months, leaders announced Tuesday.

Hollywood production had essentially been at a standstill since May 2, when the Writers Guild of America went on strike and SAG-AFTRA performers mostly honored their picket lines. The WGA ended its strike in late September, and members overwhelmingly ratified their new deal in early October. SAG-AFTRA walked off the job July 14.

Following an almost four-month strike that paralyzed Hollywood, members of the actors union SAG-AFTRA approved a new contract Tuesday, the guild said.

A vast majority of SAG-AFTRA members voted to ratify a new contract with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers, bringing the 118-day actors’ strike to a formal conclusion, the union announced on Tuesday.

The outcome is a major relief for union leaders and an entertainment industry that is attempting to return to normal after months of labor strife.
