<p>The strike by the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (Sag-Aftra) hit its 100th day on Saturday.</p>
<p>While writers are busy back at work after ending their strike, there is no end in sight for actors.</p>
<p>Their talks abruptly ended on October 11th when studios walked away from the negotiating table saying the two sides were too far apart to go on.</p>
<p>The prolonged strike means films and TV shows will remain sidelined indefinitely, and it is already starting to affect the upcoming awards season.</p>
<p>The strike began on July 14th at what should have been a celebratory time for many performers and the industry.</p>
<p>Nominations for the Emmy Awards had just been announced, heaping praise on shows such as Succession, The Last Of Us and The White Lotus.</p>

<p>The #Barbenheimer craze was in full swing and poised to set the box office on fire, giving another jolt to still-recovering cinemas.</p>
<p>While the writers’ strike — declared more than two months before — had slowed the industry, it immediately ground to a halt with a fiery speech from actors guild president Fran Drescher.</p>
<p>Actors joined writers on the picket lines for the first dual strike in more than 60 years.</p>
<p>Work on new seasons of shows such as Abbott Elementary and shooting on films such as Deadpool 3 stopped.</p>
<p>Outside studio offices in California and New York, and at filming hubs around the country, actors have picketed, rallied and called on entertainment companies to share in a bigger share of streaming successes and give them protections from the use of artificial intelligence.</p>
<p>Premieres were cancelled, or featured only directors – some of whom found creative ways to spotlight the actors missing their moment.</p>
<p>September came and went with muted autumn film festivals and no Emmy Awards, which moved to January.</p>
<p>Last month’s deal between screenwriters and the studios and streaming giants led to hope that actors would reach an agreement too.</p>
<p>Those hopes were dashed earlier this month when negotiations broke down, leaving awards season in flux.</p>
<p>So for now, the picket signs will stay out, and actors will remain on pavements instead of sets.</p>
