Regular stars of various series could start appearing more often as guest stars or even regulars on other shows across various streaming platforms and networks.
After a decade of lobbying to curtail ‘exclusivity’ agreements regarding TV series regulars, actor’s union SAG-AFTRA has approved a deal that will allow actors to appear on multiple shows at the same time.
In the agreement, producers will be required to give actors a three-month window after each season in which they can take any job they want. It also limits the reasons a producer may stop a series regular from accepting an appearance on another program.
The new agreement will apply to work under contracts entered into on or after January 1st.
