Screen Actors Guild negotiators plan to meet to consider their options after failing to reach agreement with film and TV studios on a new three-year contract. SAG negotiators met for around five hours yesterday with their counterparts from the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers, which represents the studios, for a session at which SAG was to respond to a “final” contract offer presented June 30, the day the actors’ last contract expired. AMPTP officials emerged saying their offer had been rejected. SAG officials, however, refused to characterize their stance as a rejection, saying they had accepted some of the producers’ proposals while suggesting alternatives for others.
