EXCLUSIVE: Oscar-winning actress Jessica Chastain has given her seal of approval to the tentative agreement reached by SAG-AFTRA with the studios to end the near four-month actors’ strike.
“I’m glad our leadership, the SAG leadership has gotten to a deal they think is fair and just and historic in its own right,” Chastain told Deadline.
Eligible members of the 160,00 strong SAG-AFTRA guild have been voting on the ratification of the proposed new three-year contract since November 14, with the vote running until December 5.
Chastain was talking to Deadline on the Red Carpet of Morocco’s Marrakech Film Festival, where she is jury president this year.

“We’re still waiting to find out what the voters are going to choose – if they’re going to ratify the contract. I’ve looked through it. I do think personally it’s a good deal but of course I only have one vote. It’s important to me what everyone else thinks as well. The beautiful thing about taking a vote, is that everyone gets to have a say.”
Chastain ended up becoming a de facto actors’ strike spokeswoman on the fall festival circuit due to the fact her latest film, Michel Franco’s Memory, secured an interim SAG-AFTRA agreement as an independent production.
This enabled her to hit the red carpet and press conferences in Venice, Toronto, San Sebastian and Zurich, where she spoke up in support of the strike on a number of occasions.
