The WGA (Writers' Guild of America) andthe Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) have finally reached an agreement, thus ending the 148-day-long strike. As per Variety, "The MOA includes increases to minimum wage and compensation, increased pension and health fund rates, improvements to terms for length of employment and size of writing teams (which had been shrinking drastically in recent years), and better residuals (which are like royalties), including foreign streaming residuals." The Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA), however, is still on strike and will resume its negotiations on Monday.
Now that the writers' strike is over, reportedly, the famous sitcom 'The Office' is all set to have its reboot. Greg Daniels, co-creator of the American version, is reportedly all set to make the reboot. More details are awaited.
