On October 21, 2020, actor Stephen Amell expressed his frustration over the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike. The strike, which began on October 21, is a labor dispute between the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) union and several major video game companies. The union is seeking better wages and improved working conditions for voice actors in video games.

In a series of tweets, Amell expressed his support for the union and its members. He noted that he was “proud to be a member of SAG-AFTRA” and that he was “disappointed” that the strike had to happen. He also urged the video game companies to “do the right thing” and “negotiate fairly” with the union.

The SAG-AFTRA strike has been ongoing since October 21. The union is seeking better wages and improved working conditions for voice actors in video games. Currently, voice actors in video games are not compensated for their work in the same way as actors in television and film. The union is also seeking better safety protocols for voice actors who are required to perform stunts or other physically demanding tasks.

The strike has been met with support from many in the entertainment industry, including Stephen Amell. Amell’s support is especially important given his long career in television and film. His support for the SAG-AFTRA strike shows that he is committed to improving working conditions for all actors, regardless of medium.

The SAG-AFTRA strike is an important issue for all actors, and Stephen Amell’s support is a sign that the entertainment industry is committed to improving working conditions for all actors. It is hoped that the video game companies will negotiate fairly with the union and reach an agreement that is beneficial to both sides.
