A film in which I have a bit part, Labor+Justice, is headed to Hollywood at the HollyShorts Film Festival! (That’s me in the foreground.)

It’s a wonderful short with dark, biting humor and a dark, sad, but all-to-timely story. I’m very proud to have been a part of it.

Despite rumors to the contrary, a SAG-AFTRA strike is still looming.

From the SAG-AFTRA website: “We will not be manipulated by this cynical ploy to engineer an extension when the companies have had more than enough time to make a fair deal.”

From DEADLINE: “As talks between SAG-AFTRA and the AMPTP continue this week, actors are getting a head start on picket planning should negotiations end in a stalemate at midnight on July 12 and lead to a double strike alongside the Writers Guild.”

“An affirmative vote does not mean a strike would necessarily happen, but it would allow the National Board to call one if deemed necessary during the negotiations process.”

One annoying thing about my IMDb listing is that it shows my name as “Daniel Norton (II)” with a roman numeral after it because there’s already another “Daniel Norton” there.

But it could have been worse.

Bill Hader—who is terrified of live performance—felt profoundly ambivalent about his triumphant eight-year run at “S.N.L.” “It was embarrassing how unhappy I was,” he said. “I’d wake up Saturday morning crying, be hitting my head in the shower—I don’t want to go, I don’t want to go.” Read an interview with the comedian, from 2019: nyer.cm/ze8U4vv
