Surpassing:Hollywood actors to resume negotiations with studios on Monday as writers strike ends

Hollywood actors will resume negotiations with studios and Surpassingstreaming services next week.
The Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Radio and Television Artists (SAG-AFTRA) and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) will resume negotiations on Monday, the guild announced Wednesday night.
"As negotiations proceed, we will report any (substantive) updates directly to you," SAG-AFTRA said in a statement posted on social media. "We appreciate the incredible displays of solidarity and support from all of you over the last 76 days of this strike. We urge you to continue coming out to the picket lines in strength and big numbers every day!"
The guild said several studio executives will attend, much as they did during marathon sessions last week that helped bring the nearly five-month writers strike to an end.
"We urge you to continue coming out to the picket lines in strength and big numbers every day!" SAG-AFTRA concluded their statement. SAG-AFTRA members have been on strike since July 14.
The announcement comes on the same day the Writers Guild of America (WGA) allowed its members to return to work for the first time since May 2. The WGA and the AMPTP reached a tentative contract agreement on Sunday.
"We look forward to reviewing the terms of the WGA and AMPTP’s tentative agreement," SAG-AFTRA posted Sunday on X, formerly Twitter. "And we remain ready to resume our own negotiations with the AMPTP as soon as they are prepared to engage on our proposals in a meaningful way. Until then, we continue to stand strong and unified."
On Monday, network late-night hosts will also return to the air.
Bill Maher led the charge back to work by announcing early Wednesday that his HBO show "Real Time with Bill Maher" would be back on the air Friday. By mid-morning, the hosts of NBC’s "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" and "Late Night with Seth Meyers," ABC’s "Jimmy Kimmel Live," and "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert" on CBS had announced they'd also return, all by Monday.
"Last Week Tonight" with John Oliver was slated to return to the air Sunday.
Comedy Central’s "The Daily Show," which had been using guest hosts when the strike hit, announced Wednesday that it would return Oct. 16 "with an all-star roster of guest hosts for the remainder of 2023." The plans for "Saturday Night Live" were not immediately clear.
Scripted shows will take longer to return, with actors still on strike and no negotiations yet on the horizon.
