More than 60 years later, actors and screenwriters in the United States have announced their first simultaneous strike – and the effects of that stoppage have already spread to Germany.
Hollywood stars Ryan Gosling and Margot Robbie will not attend the premiere of their movie “Barbie”, which is scheduled for Saturday in Berlin, and they have moved away from promotional dates for the film, and there will be no press conference following the movie’s screening.
The film will be shown for the first time in Germany today, Saturday, at the “Berlinale Palast” theater, while the German language film will start next Thursday.
The stars expressed their solidarity with many of their colleagues, who are paid much less than them.
Speaking at the London premiere of “Barbie,” Ruby said she “strongly supports all unions,” according to media reports. Director Greta Gerwig said she “really wants them to stay strong and win their fight”.
The actors’ strike was officially set for Thursday following weeks of negotiations failed to reach an agreement with the Film and Television Producers Association.
Hans-Werner Mayer, a member of the board of directors of the German Federal Association of Actors, told the German News Agency (dpa) on Friday that the association supports the actors’ strike.
