After ten months of sometimes explosive negotiations, the Screen Actors Guild and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers have mutually agreed to terms for a contract that has yet to be finalized, according to a joint statement released by SAG and the AMPTP. No word on the details of the potential compromise–the actors and producers have been at loggerheads over a wide range of issues since the actors’ contract expired in June–but SAG’s national board of directors will be reviewing the proposal during a videoconference on Sunday, April 19.

I knew the SAG would give in, there’s no way they would have been able to go on strike and win when there are still heavy ramifications from the writers strike, the economy is going bad and they didn’t even have enough votes. Still it’s nice that this ride is over.
