(DailyDig.com) – With the end of the writers’ strike, Hollywood is preparing to resume filming as soon as the actors’ strike is resolved.
Elsa Ramo, at Ramo Law, said the strike has delayed a number of already approved projects. They should complete the task at hand.
Preproduction on many upcoming films may soon resume. A sequel to “The Batman” will be produced by Warner Bros. Production on “Fast X: Part 2” is something Universal is eager to begin. Paramount is anxious to launch the new “Star Trek” series.
That’s great news for productions that have been waiting for workers to return. When SAG-AFTRA’s strike ends, production on blockbuster films like “Beetlejuice 2,” “Gladiator,” and “Twisters” may restart.
Logistics will be a headache due to the expected influx of production. Filming sites and soundstages will be in short supply. Studios are bracing for what will be an intense battle for A-listers.
Everyone will be looking for the same few actors and directors. The issue then turns into one of supply and demand. The production schedule was spaced out before the walkout. Production on many shows will now begin simultaneously.
When it comes to television programs, most streaming services and networks are prioritizing the continuation of ongoing series that were previously in development or production. They can promptly go back to work since they may use identical creative teams and ensembles. When stars sign on, production on popular television series like “Chicago” and “Law & Order” may go forward quickly.
While the show’s older performers may still pass for high school students, production on the final season of “Stranger Things” would begin quickly at Netflix. The production team behind HBO’s “Game of Thrones” prequel is excited to get started.
As Hollywood is forced to readjust to a drastically altered industry, the frenzy to resume production may soon die down. Once production is up and running, presumably by the beginning of next year, there will be a dramatic reduction in the number of people looking for work.
