The Big Picture Imagine owing somebody $45 for a job, but refusing to pay them that. So, your job can't get done, and it ends up costing you $500. That would be pretty stupid, right? Well, add on the word "million" to those numbers and you'll find that you might be in charge of major Hollywood studios like Warner Bros.

Discovery's CEO, David Zaslav, has been actively engaging with industry peers to facilitate the resolution of the WGA and SAG-AFTRA work stoppages.
