The news of the likely writers strike ending comes after the studios presented their “best and final” offer on Saturday night (September 23).
Variety and other major trade paper outlets also report that since the WGA Strike seems to be coming to an end, it could be followed by the end of the SAG-AFTRA strike as well.
