‘I draw the line here’: ‘Andor’ getting held up by the industry shutdown stretches patience to breaking point

The delay of the second season due to the strikes is driving fans crazy.

Since the writers’ and actors’ strikes began, AMPTP has been accused of several things, including deliberately prolonging negotiations with the Writers’ Guild of America in the hopes that will run out of money and lose their homes. Studios may claim differently, but a persistent failure to pay writers and actors fairly speaks volumes.

Now that the newest series to fall prey to the strikes is SAG-AFTRA strike, delaying filming and the scheduled premiere date of the second season as a result, prompting subscribers to reach their breaking point. 

One even went so far as to declare that the studios can keep anything Marvel away, but Andor is where he draws the line, demanding that the AMPTP pay the writers and actors their due. 

Andor is reportedly still filming at Pinewood Studios without its SAG-AFTRA cast , and will continue shooting for as long as possible with actors who fall under agreements with Equity, the British acting union, according to Deadline. Nonetheless, it is unclear when the show will be able to finish the shoot with the actors who are currently on strike, as neither the SAG-AFTRA strike nor the WGA strike appears to be ending very soon. 

Despite their frustration with the show’s delays, devoted viewers are vocal on Twitter in ing the actors and writers, who they all believe deserve better pay.
