Ben Stiller about the actors and writers' strike

On July 13, 2023, a user tweeted about the actors and writers' strike: 

"You know, there are a lot of us working in the industry that don't have the benefit of a union. I want the actors and writers to get fairly compensated, but I also want to keep my job. I hope that the actors going on strike will force a resolution." 

Ben Stiller replied: 

"Agreed. The awful reality is the crews and craftspeople who are not on strike bearing the brunt of this action."

Agreed. The awful reality is the crews and craftspeople who are not on strike bearing the brunt of this action.
