The writer’s strike probably still won’t be really felt for a while, but this will have an immediate effect. No press junkets, no premieres, no conventions, etc.

Conventions are still happening, but actors can only talk about old work, nothing active. That makes sense, but curious if actors will just refuse to go altogether. Would be wild for SDCC to become an actual comic book convention again.

It would be nice to go back to the old ways.
