Its Day 5 of theSAG-AFTRAstrike and Day 78 of theWGAstrike.

Theyve already been out here.

They know the fight.

Theyre in the fight.

And its one fight, really.

Im not trying to conjecture too much, Gondelman said.

Actor’s Strike

Were in it til we get a fair deal.

Thats been our stance when it was just the writers.

But its really encouraging, this infusion of noise and this infusion of energy.

And thats why were here to support.

Discovery offices above Union Square.

So its important for people to rationally sit down.

But that feeling … helps me to identify with the others in this position.

And so Im out here screaming my voice out, just trying to be heard.

Until last week, Sean Crespo described himself as a striking writer.

Look, we were prepared to go this alone, Crespo told Deadline, referring to the Writers Guild.

But having these guys here, its just extra.

And their struggle is basically very similar to ours.

And its awesome to see them owning how dangerous the times are.

I keep saying them, like Im not a member, he added.

Like fellow writer Gondelman, Crespo wasnt quite ready to assign a timeline to a dual strike.

The math has sort of become more complicated in a way, he said.

You would think it would get shorter.
