As the Writers' Strike Ends, Your Favorite Actors Keep Hitting the Picket Lines

On July 24, SAG-AFTRA Foundation president Courtney B. Vance told Variety that Johnson had donated a large sum to SAG-AFTRA's Emergency Financial Assistance Program, which works to provide financial relief to many of the union's members impacted by the strike. "It was a love fest. It's like, 'Man, you're stepping up in a way that is allowing others to know the dire necessity of it,'" Vance told the outlet of Johnson's support, adding that the exact amount Johnson donated will remain under wraps. "This is him saying, 'In such a time as this, I'm here and I'm not going anywhere, whatever you need me to do.' And that sends a huge message to other folks to do the same thing."
