Details of how streaming residuals would be paid out are also baked into the tentative deal, which introduces a new model in which the top 20% of streaming shows would get a 75% increase in their residuals, with the other 25% going into a fund managed by both groups, the sources said.
SAG-AFTRA and AMPTP did not immediately respond to requests for comment Thursday.
The union’s national board will review the tentative deal Friday, when more details are expected to be released.
Tens of thousands of actors represented by the union hit the picket lines on July 14 after they were unable to agree on a new contract with the AMPTP, which bargains for studios and streaming services. (The trade group represents Comcast, which owns NBC News.)
The Writer’s Guild of America, a union that represents Hollywood screenwriters and also went on strike, reached its own tentative agreement with the AMPTP in September.
