Priyanka Chopra Jonas Supports Hollywood Actor’s Strike, Says “I Stand With You”

The Actress Is The New Name In The List Of Actors Who Have Joined The Strike

Actress Priyanka Chopra Jonas has shown her support for the ongoing Hollywood strike. Taking to her Instagram account, she posted an image and captioned it, “I stand with my union and colleagues. In solidarity, we build a better tomorrow.” The post quickly went viral, with her fans appreciating her stance and expressing their support. One user commented, “I stand with you, fight for justice while it lasts.” Another user simply wrote, “I stand with you.”

Talking about the strike, it’s the first time two major Hollywood unions have been on strike at the same time since 1960 when Ronald Reagan was the Actors’ Guild president.

The Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) initiated their strike on Friday, joining the writers who have been on strike since May. The strike has now brought together approximately 11,500 members of the Writers Guild of America (WGA) and around 16,000 members of SAG-AFTRA.

SAG-AFTRA president Fran Drescher expressed the gravity of the situation, stating, “This is a moment of history, a moment of truth – if we don’t stand tall right now, we are all going to be in trouble.” She emphasized the need to take a stand and highlighted the necessity of adapting the contract to reflect the significant changes in the business model.

In summary, the strike in Hollywood, involving both writers and actors, is a response to concerns regarding AI, wages, and fair profit sharing in the digital era. The united effort aims to address these issues and ensure the industry adapts to the evolving landscape.
