Did you know that Hollywood’s production is down by about 40%? This dramatic drop has been driven by several factors: the recent WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, shifting priorities to streaming platforms, and studios playing it safe with fewer original projects. Even though the strikes are over, it will take months (maybe more!) to fully recover.

Let’s talk about it! 🎥💬 What are your thoughts on how this will affect the future of entertainment? Will studios change their approach?
