The 65-year-old actress called the studios’ attitude “disgusting” demanding respect for all workers
Known by the general public for playing the role of the ‘Nanny’ in the well-known American sitcom of the 90s, Fran Drescher is back in the limelight thanks to a fiery speech she gave to demonstrate her participation in the actors’ strike, denouncing the “disgusting” attitude of the studios. Leading the Sag-Aftra union since 2021, the small-screen star pointed the finger at big Hollywood production companies who claim they are “losing money left and right as they give hundreds of millions of dollars to their CEOs”. “Shame on you,” thundered the 65-year-old actress, noting that the actors, “victims of very greedy entities”, have been “marginalized and dishonored” by a business model drastically changed by streaming and artificial intelligence. “We ask for respect, you do not exist without us,” Fran Drescher recalled, addressing the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers, which brings together the main studios, including Amazon, Apple, Disney, Netflix and Warner Bros. Discovery.
