The SAG and WGA strike has put the industry on halt

How Is Sydney Sweeney Allowed to Work on a New Music Video Amid the SAG-AFTRA Strike?

Sydney Sweeney [https://www.netflixjunkie.com/tag/sydney-sweeney/] is all over
the place with her movies, shows, and collaborations. The actress has kept
herself busy ever since she started her early career and ticked several goals.
She has been diversifying her profile, taking every opportunity that comes her
way. Her fan base also welcomed each of her assignments with open arms. Just
recently, she was dressed up in a new avatar for a music video.

This brings up one question. How is the actress working while the rest of
Hollywood has come to a standstill? Writers have been struggling to make ends
meet with their long strike, but the 25-year-old is jumping from one project to
another.


WHY IS SYDNEY SWEENEY ALLOWED TO WORK DURING THE SAG STRIKE?

The SAG-AFTRA and WGA strike began for the protection of writers and actors.
This also means that the thousands of workers covered under it cannot continue
to work until it ends. Yet we saw pictures of Sydney Sweeney in different
avatars as she dazzled in a black outfit for a music video. According to
TeenVogue [https://www.teenvogue.com/story/sydney-sweeney-films-music-video],
the actress gets an exception to work because she is shooting for a music video.
As per the union, anyone involved in a soap opera, music video, reality, or game
show can continue to shoot.

> Update: Great news! We just received word from SAG that we have been approved

The Euphoria actress was captured in a black leatherette outfit in Los Angeles
recently. A clip showed her sitting in a red convertible as she looked at the
camera from the car behind, pretending to play the guitar. Makeup artist Patrick
Ta also confirmed her project, although the name of the song has not been
revealed yet.

The SAG strike has halted many ongoing projects, but exceptions to their rules
have allowed a few to continue.


HOW THE SAG STRIKE EXCEPTION WORKS

Even as the SAG strike was beginning, Oppenheimer cast rushed for its premiere.
Netflix and other OTT platforms came to a standstill, with new seasons and
ongoing shoots coming to a halt. But Netflix shows like The Chosen will continue
to shoot as it works on public funding, and has abided by all the demands put
forth by SAG.

To add to it, international shows like Elite can continue to work

which proves how variety helps the platform to continue. However, shows like
Cobra Kai, Emily In Paris, The Night Agent, etc. have been affected by the
strikes. Members covered under it have shown nothing but support it so far.
