HBO is very successful Game of Thrones spin off, Dragon House, will not be affected by the SAG-AFTRA strike, Variety said in a report. Due to the show’s cast being primarily made up of actors who work under contracts regulated by the local Equity union, the show is technically allowed to continue filming due to Equity members being legally not allowed to strike in solidarity with their American counterparts. . .
Equity shared strike recommendations with its 47,000 members on Thursday, shortly before SAG-AFTRA formally announced the strike, adding: “Equity UK will support SAG-AFTRA and its members in all legal ways. A performer joining a strike (or refusing to cross a picket line) in the UK will not be protected from dismissal or prosecution for breach of contract by the producer or performer. Likewise, if Equity encourages anyone to join a strike or not cross the picket line, Equity itself will be acting illegally and will therefore be liable for damages or an injunction.”
The show also managed to avoid a simultaneous WGA strike. In accordance with strike rules, WGA members involved in international projects must stop their work in any industry under the jurisdiction of the union if active writing assignments are being performed. Consequently, several US projects filmed in the UK were affected by the strike, but luckily for HBO, Dragon House was able to continue production by completing scripts before the strike.
