LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – The Screen Actors Guild and Hollywood's major studios will restart labor contract talks on February 3, both groups said in statements signaling a thaw in their chilly relations.
SAG, which represents some 120,000 U.S. actors, and the studio's representative, the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers, will hold a new round of negotiations next Tuesday and Wednesday, the groups said late on Wednesday.
No further details were given and the groups said they would not comment further.
The announcements follow the ouster of SAG's chief labor negotiator Doug Allen earlier this week by moderates of SAG's national governing board.
SAG members have been without a film and prime-time TV contract since their old pact expired June 30, after negotiations collapsed and the studios presented what they called their "final" offer.
