Actors are 'often made to keep quiet in order to protect future working opportunities,' the Memory actor suggested as a reason for Hollywood's toxic practices
, as they say they blunt the visual impact of an industry-wide picket.
For Chastain, the opportunity to speak—which she did while wearing a black “SAG-AFTRA on strike” t-shirt—was precious, if nerve-wracking. Actors are “often made to keep quiet in order to protect future working opportunities, and we are often told and reminded how grateful we should be,” she said. “That is the environment that I think has allowed work to be abused, to go unchecked for many decades. And is also the environment that has saddled members of our union with unfair contracts.
Independent producers, like the ones here, are letting the AMPTP know that actors deserve fair compensation, that AI protection should be implemented, and there should be sharing of streaming revenues. I hope my being here today encourages other independent producers, and encourages actors to show up [at festivals] and support our union members. Hopefully we will see an end to the strike soon and hopefully AMPTP will go back to the table.
