The Studio Briefing side of IMDB.com writes that the Writers Guild of America has confirmed if a strike is called next month, the WGA will bar writers from performing animation-related work, although that area is not featured under the current contract. In response, Steven Hulett, representative for the Animation Guild, commented, “Any union can discipline their members for violations of internal rules and policy. But I can’t imagine our union attempting to prevent someone from joining and working for another union. So good luck to them.” Variety has more on this story.
