Members of the Writers Guild of America (WGA) overwhelmingly approved their contract with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP). It brings to the end the strike by WGA members that lasted for nearly five months.

The contract is for three-years and 8,525 valid votes were cast of the 11,000 members of the Writers Guild of America West and Writers Guild of America East.

8,435 individuals voted yes and 90 voted no. The new deal runs from September 25, 2023 to May 31, 2026.

The vote came after the initial ratification about two weeks ago after a strike that lasted 148 days.

Writers already have returned to work as the restraining order was lifed by the West Coast board and East Coast council. That ended as of 12:01 a.m. PT on September 27.

Currently SAG-AFTRA is still on strike looking for their own agreement.
