Hollywood actors currently on strike will continue negotiations with studios next week, just days after writers ended their own nearly five-month-long strike this week.

The actors’ union, SAG-AFTRA, said in a statement on X, formerly known as Twitter, that it will meet with executives from the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) on Oct. 2 as part of ongoing efforts to get a new deal.
