The repercussions of the Hollywood strikes
It鈥檚 been six months since Hollywood鈥檚 actors and writers reached a deal. But even though the strikes have long stopped, the repercussions are still being felt across the world.
Last summer marked the first time in six decades that Hollywood鈥檚 actors and writers went on strike simultaneously. They hit pause on production over pay and the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the film industry.
The strikes brought the industry to boiling point, but wider issues were simmering for some time.
They caused a multi-billion economic toll on those who work in film and television - from crew members to caterers. Businesses burned through savings and piled up debt.
This edition of Business Daily unpicks the plot of one of Hollywood's biggest dramas.
