WGA Threatens to Sue Amazon Studios for Failing to Restart Shows, Including Marvel’s ’Silk: Spider Society’: Report

Marvel's 'Silk: Spider Society'.

The Writers Guild of America has reportedly sent a letter to Amazon Studios threatening the company with a lawsuit if it doesn't re-start several shows that were shut down during the 148-day Hollywood writers strike that ended in late September. 

According to The Ankler — which (successfully, it seems) employed a PR firm to get a little aggregation traction for its big scoop — the WGA accuses Amazon of violating the agreement that ended the strike by not reopening writers’ rooms to series including the Marvel and Sony co-production Silk: Spider Society that were initiated before the WGA strike started in early May.
