"It's an existential thing--sort of like waiting for Godot. That's the way TV/film/stage veteran Tony Amendola describes one of the actor's main tasks on a set.

“The AI terms need to be way more robust” than what the WGA got, Schwartz said. “This is about our bodies, our faces and our voices.”And of course, some seem to feel that with the WGA strike ending that somehow the SAG-AFTRA will soon capitulate and get back to work.However, there’s still a lot of bargaining to be done…
