Productions unaffected by SAG-AFTRA strike

SAG-AFTRA has granted a waiver to 39 independent productions to shoot during the actors strike as they are not attached to AMPTP companies.

39 independent productions will proceed with filming including A24's Mother Mary and Paul Rudd and Jenny Ortega starrer Death of a Unicorn, scheduled to shoot in Hungary.

Per Deadline, other approved projects include: Matthew McConaughey's Rivals of Amziah King, Sigourney Weaver and Mads Mikkelsen's Dust Bunny, and Bride Hard, starring Rebel Wilson.

Lionsgate titles include: thriller Flight Risk, which sees Mel Gibson direct Mark Wahlberg, and JJ Perry action-comedy The Killer’s Game starring Dave Bautista, Ben Kingsley, and Sofia Boutella.

Permissions are being granted to “truly independent producers” as long as they are not affiliated with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers and "agree to be bound retroactively to whatever contract terms eventually are achieved with the AMPTP when the strike is settled."
