Stars of CBS Shows unable to attend San Diego Comic-Con due to WGA and SAG-AFTRA Strike

Held annually in San Diego, CA, San Diego Comic-Con, also known as SDCC or Comic-Con International celebrates comic books, movies, television, and other forms of pop culture. It is the largest convention of its kind in the world, and it attracts over 130,000 people each year.

As they do every year, SDCC organizers worked with creatives across all facets of the entertainment industry to bring fans tons of exciting panels and events. The WGA and SAG-AFTRA Strike means that the actors and writers who create these amazing shows cannot celebrate with fans at San Diego Comic-Con. The strike means that they won’t be able to promote any scripted television and theatrical work from struck companies.

The livelihoods of working-class SAG-AFTRA and WGA members are in jeopardy because the AMPTP refuses to offer a fair deal to creatives who work in television, theatrical, and streaming work. The AMPTP needs their demands soon so that actors and writers can be paid fairly and continue to produce the shows and movies we love. It is heartbreaking to know that the people making the stories we love are unable to support themselves financially due to corporate greed.  And to celebrate their work with their fans.

San Diego Comic-Con gets a lot of hype because of its big celebrity-filled events. Fans and industry insiders come from all over the world come to SDCC for more than just celebrities. Hall H panels and the big studio announcements are just one part of it. There is still so much to do at San Diego Comic-Con. It’s heartbreaking that these actors and writers can’t celebrate their work this year.
