DGA to begin talks with AMPTP

If the AMPTP treats directors like it did writers, at least the directors will have time before they go on strike. The director's contract ends in June, but the WGA strike may have some effect on how the DGA conducts itself in the upcoming talks. While the DGA talks won't have a direct effect on the outcome of the WGA strike, the writers could show just how much the AMPTP is willing to budge, hopefully avoiding a DGA strike.

However, if the DGA gets a deal before the WGA, what does that mean for the writers? Well, it depends on what the producers get.
