A great way to make sure Naya Rivera got in on the reunion too.
“We marched in solidarity with @sagaftra and @wgastrikeunite @wgawest @wgaeast,” “We marched in solidarity with @sagaftra and @wgastrikeunite @wgawest @wgaeast,” Morris wrote in an Instagram post, wearing a T-shirt that read “Heather Morris – actress”
Diana Argon (Quinn Fabre) was the only Glee not to take part in the reunion, but she still showed her support for the cause by commenting on a series of heart-shaped emojis under each post.
Death of Nai Rivera
The actress tragically died in July 2020 after going missing while boating with her son Josie. Rivera, 33, was boating on Lake Piru in Ventura County, California with her 4-year-old son. The child was found abandoned on the boat, after which he told the rescuers that together with his mother they went out on the boat to swim, but after the dive she did not return. Glee actress Nai Rivera’s body was found in Lake Piru, California. This was reported by Ventura County authorities, who have been engaged in search operations for about a week. The actress disappeared on July 8 during a trip to the lake. Authorities are convinced the actress managed to save her four-year-old son Josie by getting him back on the drifting boat.
Naya Rivera began acting as a child and rose to fame as a lesbian cheerleader on the Fox series Glee, which aired from 2009 to 2015 for six seasons. Her passing sparked widespread mourning on social media, with nearly every other star on the show sharing their thoughts and prayers for their colleague’s fate.
Strike in Hollywood
Actors and actresses who have joined SAG-AFTRA and WGA also include Anna Kendrick, Bradley Cooper, Will Smith, Colin Farrell, Sarah Silverman, Kevin Bacon, Kyra Sedgwick and Jessica Chastain.
This is the largest strike of film and television actors in 40 years. Screenwriters joined the protest, crossing their arms in May for the first time in 63 years. Stars from both the big and small screens have joined fellow writers on pickets that have been wreaking havoc on the U.S. entertainment industry since early May.
The actors’ union, which has 160,000 members, voted unanimously after a last-minute attempt to make a deal with the studios fell through. This is the first actors’ strike against the film and television industry since 1980, and the first time that actors and screenwriters have crossed their arms at the same time since 1960, when she headed the Screen Actors Guild (then called the Screen Actors Guild). was Ronald Reagan.
