US actors' unions abandon the Hobbit boycott
The largest actors' unions in the United States - the Screen Actors Guild and the American Federation of Television and Radio Actors - have abandoned the boycott of the Hobbit dilogy. This was announced in an official press release. It is noteworthy that the leadership of the Screen Actors Guild explains its decision with the “recommendations of colleagues from the brotherly New Zealand trade union”, who “advised to lift the ban.” We will remind that earlier, Peter Jackson made a statement in which he said that the Warner Bros. made the decision to move the production of the painting to another country, since she no longer `` considers his investments to be safe. '' According to Jackson, even the abolition of the boycott can no longer change the situation, as the damage to the prestige of the New Zealand movie industry is too severe. New Zealand's only hope now is the government, which can make an emergency decision and provide the creators of The Hobbit; tax incentives.
