September 18, 2023 has become one of the most anticipated days in Hollywood, the day of the Emmy Awards. However, due to a strike by actors and screenwriters, the event was rescheduled. The news is official, Fox, which has hegemony in the event, was particularly interested in the postponement, since the absence of relevant stars on the red carpet would guarantee an evening of “stables” and not stars. In fact, the ratings would certainly have dropped compared to other years, and Fox didn’t want to take that risk. Is there anything to blame them for? I would say no! A second official date has not been announced, but there are rumors that the Emmys will take place in January.
Emmy Award and strike
For the first time since 2001, what are considered television Oscars has been postponed. After all, we recall that in 2001 the ceremony was postponed after the September 11 massacres, and then, in November, against the backdrop of the first hostilities in Afghanistan. The reasons for the strike, to recall, are contractual reasons that separate Hollywood talent from studios and streaming giants, from copyrights to online reprogramming of films, shows and series, to the threat of artificial intelligence and much more.
Speaking of AI, Netflix posted an ad looking for an AI manager who is paid $900,000 a year — the amount that 87% of actors’ union members who can’t scrape together $26,000 in 12 months need to qualify for a mortgage. . Writers have been on strike since May, while actors have been on strike only since mid-July, as we have already discussed in the previous article. As we’ve already announced, there are many delays with planned movies and series, both for streaming platforms like Disney+ and above, and major theaters.
Deadline said California Gov. Gavin Newson, whose wife Jennifer Siebel is a renowned documentary filmmaker, could broker the talks. Other potential intermediaries are rumored to be Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and even Doe Emhoff, the husband of Vice President Kamala Harris, who was an entertainment lawyer before the Biden-Harris party victory over Donald Trump.
