The Alliance of Motion Pictures & Television Producers (AMPTP) have put a little extra sugar on their “final offer” to the actors to try and get the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) to accept a new contract with them.
That sugar is a $10 million sweetener retroactive to July 1 if, and only if, the union membership agrees to ratify the deal by midnight August 15, 2008.
SAG’s is said to be getting itself ready to respond today to this newest addition to the final plan.
A spokesperson for the AMPTP said late today that “The producers have included this traditional incentive in the final offer in order to get everyone back to work and end the de facto strike.”
SAG had no official statement and would only indicate that they will look it over and respond directly to the producers first, and not the press.
