Literally no one cares what anyone wears for Halloween, Gilbert wrote on Instagram.
I mean, do you really think this kind of infantile stuff is going to end the strike?
We look like a joke.
hey tell me youre going to make this rule go away… and go negotiate!
Gilbert directly tagged the Instagram accounts of current SAG-AFTRA president Fran Drescher and chief negotiator Duncan Crabtree-Ireland.
This is the kind of silly bullshit that keeps us on strike.
Lets enact a policy that makes us look petty and incompetent at the same time.
Gilbert was in charge of the SAG actors union from 2001 to 2005.
