It has been a wild time for Hollywood this last fortnight.

Screen Actors Guild members and writers have been striking over pay and AI and it has brought the glitz and glamour of Tinseltown to a standstill.

Many of La La Land’s best known faces have been spotted on the picket line including Oscar winners Allison Janney and Susan Sarandon as well as the alarmingly talented director Olivia Wilde who has somehow become better known for dating Harry Styles.

And it seems that the great and the good of Hollywood have been joined by Aussie Christian Wilkins.

Wilkins is the son of Richard Wilkins, Nine’s very own showbusiness reporter and the man with the best hair down under.

In Australia Christian has made a career out of being well, Christian.

He is a working model and has even sashayed around the dance floor on Seven’s Dancing with the Stars.

Unfortunately for Christian, he decided to set his sights on Hollywood at not the best time.

Last year, he revealed to Who Magazine that he was leaving Sydney to try his luck in Los Angeles.

“I just think there’s an opportunity to go there and see what might happen, and I’d love to try to explore that,” they said.

Although he was quick to add he wasn’t just there to try and snag an acting role. He was

up for anything.

“I’ve always wanted to be an actor or a late-night TV host. That would be a dream … so let’s try and manifest that and see if it happens.”

Well, now Christian is on the front lines.

“It definitely wouldn’t have been my choice example of a time to move here, but it is also kind of amazing to be here and see how the community has banded together,” Christian told The Daily Telegraph.

Striking alongside Christian was fellow Aussie Actor Luke Cook, who is most well-known for his role in Dynasty.

He recently revealed the reality of being a working actor in a candid TikTok.

He confessed that he wasn’t bringing home the big bucks and used the example of how much he was paid for a stint on a show called DollFace.

The the actor explained that he was “paid per episode,” which equalled “two weeks of

work for $US7500.”

“Then it’s taxed, then a manager takes ten per cent, an agent takes ten per cent, and

then a lawyer takes 5 per cent,” Cook said.

“I am one rung below a series regular who is making maybe $100,000 per episode. They’re very wealthy, and they’re worth it, too; they’re usually very talented people.

“A huge portion of this strike is about people like me, who need to be paid more for the work that they do, who are asking for a portion of the profits that these streamers and big companies are bringing in.”
