The motion picture and television writers guild strike in demand for better working conditions in Hollywood began a month ago. This measure was formalized on May 2 and from then until now different projects have been affected. A few days ago, it became known that Daredevil: Born Again, perhaps the most important series in development in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, began to suffer delays. Now the project that should stop is mission impossible 8with Tom Cruise.
According to the latest issue of the magazine Empire, Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part 2 (or simply mission impossible 8), halted its recording process due to the strike by the Film and Television Writers Guild. According to the aforementioned media, the filming of the production is at 40%. This occurs just over a year before the premiere, scheduled on the calendar for June 28, 2024.
It is likely that, due to delays, that date may change, although at the moment there has been no official information about it. The franchise Mission Impossible is one week away from presenting its seventh installment, perhaps one of the expected within this narrative. Its release was rescheduled several times and the latest previews presented suggest that it will be a feature film faithful to the tradition of this story: action, a bit of drama, and a lot of adrenaline.
mission impossible 8 and the strike of film and television writers
The film and television writers’ union demands, in general terms, better working conditions. Within a broad package of aspirations, there are two that stand out: they want higher salaries and a greater share of the profits from the distribution of content over the Internet. The business has changed, due to the platforms of streamingand the authors feel outside of that dynamic.
Initially, there was a warning about the possibility that this strike would affect various relevant projects for the industry. A few days ago, due to demonstrations at the recording facilities, Daredevil: Born Again His work schedule was affected. On the other hand, spider-man 4also from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, is another of the productions that is detained.
In this framework of films and series affected due to the writers’ strike, has entered mission impossible 8starring Tom Cruise. Other projects that are being affected are: stranger things, The Mandalorian, yellowjackets, Abbott Elementary, The Last of Us and billions. So far, there is no scheduled date for the lifting of the strike. A few years ago, in 2007, there was another strike by TV and film writers. This lasted for 100 days.
At that time, the claim was similar to the current one. The main difference is that the services of streaming it had not been positioned within the business scheme as it is currently. In this context, it is feasible that several of the planned premieres will be rescheduled. Meanwhile, the one that does continue standing is that of mission impossible 7which will hit theaters on June 13.
