HOLLYWOOD
-
George Clooney
has offered to act as a mediator between the Writers Guild of America (WGA) union members and Hollywood bosses in a bid to end the strikes.
The writers have been on picket lines since November, bringing production on Hollywood movies to a standstill and causing a number of TV networks to release staff and air repeat shows.
The strike has also forced the organizers of Sunday's Golden Globes ceremony to cancel the event after actors threatened to boycott.
But the
Michael Clayton
star has offered to set up a "mediation panel" to settle the WGA members' grievances--and plans to ask
Steven Spielberg
,
Tom Hanks
and
ER
producer
John Wells
to help him end the dispute, according to
L.A. Weekly
.
Speaking of the strikes earlier this week, he said, "When the strike happens, it's not just writers (affected)... Our hope is that all the players will lock themselves in a room and not come out until they finish. We want this to be done. That's the most important thing."
