Members of The Writers Guild of America picket outside of Universal Studios on Thursday, May 4, 2023, in Universal City, Calif. The first Hollywood strike in 15 years commenced Tuesday as the 11,500 members of the Writers Guild of America stopped working when their contract expired.
“There’s literally nothing on our up-and-coming production list, if you will. And that’s really hurting a lot of people out here,” she says, noting it’s especially hard on younger people just starting their careers. Observers say impacts are likely to ripple north of the border where more than half of film and TV shoots are actually foreign-based but employ thousands of Canadians, such as Prime Video’s “The Boys,” which shoots in Toronto, and Netflix’s “The Night Agent,” which shoots in Vancouver.
“We do a large volume of television series production in Vancouver, and the projects that are slated to start or are in progress right now, obviously, at some point in time, will need scripts,” says Teoli.
