Striking Writers Guild members hold signs during a rally in front of Paramount Pictures studio in Los Angeles on May 17. Hollywood actors may be on the verge of joining screenwriters in what would be the first two-union strike in the industry in more than six decades.

As a strike by Hollywood writers approaches the two-month mark, late-night talk shows have been put on long-term hiatus and more and more scripted shows are pausing production, with films not far behind. The looming possibility of unionized actors striking alongside them could mean a far larger shutdown.
