On July 13, SAG-AFTRA helped make history as the guild officially voted to strike, joining the WGA on the picket lines as they fight for better and fair compensation and working conditions. Following both strikes, the film and television industry saw swift halts to several projects. While film and television are primarily affected, author Melissa de la Cruz talked a bit about how the strikes reach even further. During the Books-to-Film Tie-In: An Insider Perspective panel at San Diego Comic-Con, moderated by Collider's Perri Nemiroff, Cruz shared her connection to the strikes.

During the panel, Cruz emphasized the importance of people in any creative arts field receiving fair compensation for their work. She expressed her support for the ongoing strikes, adding that "it is just so frightening how people are devaluing what people do, what workers do. And it is really scary."
