Hollywood's striking actors and the entertainment industry's top studios are heading back to the bargaining table.
The union that represents thousands of screen actors and the trade association that bargains on behalf of entertainment companies will resume negotiations over a new contract Monday, the two groups said in a joint statement Wednesday night.
"Several executives" will be there, SAG-AFTRA and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers said in the statement. (The alliance, known as AMPTP, represents NBCUniversal, the parent company of NBC News.)
The Writers Guild of America, a union that represents thousands of film and television scribes, reached an agreement on a new three-year contract with the AMPTP on Sunday, bringing a close to a strike that started May 2.
The writers strike officially ended just after midnight Wednesday.
