Ronald Reagan: Last News

SAG-AFTRA is set to launch the guild’s first strike against the film and television industry since 1980, and the leadership of the actors union are set to explain the decision.

SAG-AFTRA’s national board voted unanimously this morning to launch the guild’s first strike against the film and television industry since 1980. The strike is set to begin tonight one minute past midnight, with picketing at all the major studios.

The London premiere of Oppenheimer is underway — but not all of the stars will stick around for the screening if SAG-AFTRA officially calls a strike today.

If there was a GIF for the moment, it may be Michael Scott running around like a headless chicken screaming for everyone to “stay calm.”

Contract negotiations between SAG-AFTRA and the AMPTP broke off tonight, and the guild’s national board will meet Thursday morning to formally approve the launch of a strike.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry might need to "reinvent themselves" as a Hollywood "power couple" after it's been hinted that the US public is beginning to get fed up with them, according to a former royal butler.

Slingo that others shouldn’t “underestimate” the former actress because she’s “ambitious.”“What if she became governor of California and lords it over Hollywood? Her backyard is Hollywood,” he said.Markle grew up in Los Angeles and currently lives in Montecito, California, with her husband, Prince Harry and their two kids, Archie and Lilibet.Burrell then described how actors-turned-politicians Arnold Schwarzenegger and Ronald Reagan were successful in their endeavors.The bodybuilder, 75, served as the 38th governor of California from 2003 to 2011, and Reagan starred in several Tinseltown features in the 1930s before becoming the 40th US president.The former royal staff member went on: “Why couldn’t Meghan and Harry do it? They could become a power couple.” “It’s not so far-fetched because they have to keep going on, they have to keep reinventing themselves because if they don’t, that brand is going to disappear, the Sussex brand will disappear,” he claimed.The Post has reached out to Markle’s reps for comment.Burrell’s statements come just weeks after Harry, 38, and Markle lost out on their $20 million Spotify contract.Their “Archetypes” podcast was not renewed for Season 2 last month.Despite this business deal falling through, the couple’s contract with Netflix is still going strong.The duo signed an estimated $100 million deal with the streamer back in 2021.However, the Invictus Games founder could be getting a little tired of his wife’s Hollywood lifestyle, according to a new report.The Daily Mail noted recently that Harry may be looking to leave the world of glitz and glamour.“The big question is how long before Harry turns his back on the show-business life, for which he is obviously ill-suited and seems entirely

Margot Robbie, Matt Dillon, Tilda Swinton, Edward Norton and Steve Carell couldn’t make it today for what’s already resembling an Oscars’ night selfie. Who we do have is Scarlett Johansson, Maya Hawke, Adrien Brody, Tom Hanks, Jeffrey Wright and Bryan Cranston, plus the director himself, Wes Anderson. So, what makes this quirky comedy-romance-sci-fi set around a 1955 junior stargazer competition in the desert such a hot ticket? Well, it’s a Wes Anderson movie.

Stephen Rodrick Trauma television used to be simple. When I was a kid, the world united for news of the 1987 rescue of Baby Jessica, a Texas toddler who fell down a well in her aunt’s backyard. There were interviews with pastors, drilling experts and second cousins. Then, we cut back to desperate rescue workers digging under klieg lights. The rescue was the thing. (Jessica was rescued and was rewarded with an audience with, uh, Ronald Reagan).  Modern coverage is now more intricate and morally dubious. 9/11 saw somber reporting on vigils and ash-covered New Yorkers desperately looking for loved ones. But it also featured Donald Trump on the phone as the towers smoldered. He bragged that he now owned the tallest building in Manhattan. This was both gross and untrue, a prophecy of things to come.

Pat Saperstein Deputy Editor It was 1941. Though World War II was already under way, film production was in full swing at Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank. Humphrey Bogart was getting ready to shoot “The Maltese Falcon,” while the next year, “Casablanca” would film on Warners soundstages and at the nearby Van Nuys airport, subbing for Morocco. Bette Davis was making “Now Voyager” on the lot after location visits to Lake Arrowhead and Laguna Beach. At the Warner Bros. Café, the studio’s commissary on the Burbank lot, James Cagney and Rita Hayworth lunched with director Raoul Walsh, while actor and future president Ronald Reagan dined with Olivia de Havilland — just a few of the major stars and filmmakers who could be seen taking a break from the hard work of filming.

Based on the director’s childhood, James Gray’s Armageddon Time tells the story of 12-year-old Paul (newcomer Banks Repeta), and how his Jewish family reacts to his friendship with a Black student, Johnny (Jaylin Webb), in early ’80s New York. Both boys share a love of space flight, and their pre-teen dreams take their imaginations light years away from their mundane lives. But the backdrop is a moment of tension, as Ronald Reagan, seeking the Republican Party’s nomination for president, stirs up civil unrest in the country. Paul’s father, Irving, played by Succession’s Jeremy Strong, despises Reagan’s dog-whistle provocations and screams at his image when he appears on television. But, he wonders, being from a vulnerable minority himself, is it wise for him to allow his son’s friendship to continue?

Leaders of Hollywood’s unions and guilds are calling on Congress to pass the Performing Artist Tax Parity Act (PATPA) before Republicans take control of the House of Representatives in January. The legislation would restore tax breaks for work-related expenses by updating the Qualified Performing Artist (QPA) deduction and modernizing a provision that has been on the books since it was signed into law in the 1980s by President Ronald Reagan. The provision would allow middle-class entertainment workers to again deduct common business expenses.
