The
deal struck between the Directors Guild of America and the
Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers came four
weeks after talks began.
The talks were the first under new DGA President Christopher
Nolan, who took the job in September.
Along with similar four-year deals — longer than the industry
three — ratified in recent weeks by unions representing writers
and actors, the DGA agreement adds to the likelihood of
long-term labor peace despite many other industry upheavals.
The collective bargaining agreement must still be approved by
the guild’s national board, and no details on the terms will be
released until then, the DGA said in a statement. It then must
be ratified by the guild membership. But tentative agreements
generally win approval at both stages.
The directors' previous contract had been set to expire June 30.
The AMPTP said in a statement that it was pleased to help
achieve “a fair deal that helps advance a stable and successful
entertainment industry.”
