Actors postpone deadline to strike against studios and streaming services

A union representing about 160,000 actors has put plans to go on strike against major studios and streaming services on hold.

The contract between the actors and an alliance of studios had been due to expire at midnight Friday. But late Friday the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) announced it would push back the expiration until 11:59 p.m. PDT on July 12 as it continues negotiations.

This is a developing story and will be updated.
