Picketing is currently suspended, but writers are advised to wait until the contract is formalized before returning to work.
The agreement includes increased royalties for streaming content and pledges that AI will not affect writing credits and compensation, among other things.
According to the guild, the deal is "exceptional — with meaningful gains and protections for writers in every sector of the membership.".
However, most TV series and films won't be able to resume production because SAG-AFTRA is still on strike, 'The New York Times' reports.
There are currently no talks scheduled between SAG-AFTRA and entertainment companies.
Experts suggest that a successful WGA deal could help to provide a blueprint for actors seeking similar concessions.
