Yesterday, the Oscar-nominated actor was spotted carrying a sign and proudly donning a SAG-AFTRA sticker at a picket line outside Disney Studios in Burbank, California.

For the outing, Pugh embraced cottagecore in a frilly white off-the-shoulder minidress featuring delicate lace along the neckline, bodice, and skirt. For footwear, Pugh walked the line in a pair of chunky white sneakers. She finished off the look with some colourful and eclectic accessories, including a beaded purple choker necklace, yellow bird-shaped earrings, bronze- and gold-rimmed cat-eye sunglasses, a slew of gold rings, and a caramel-brown shoulder bag.

Last month, the actors of SAG-AFTRA joined Writers Guild of America screenwriters to strike simultaneously for the first time in over 60 years. By withholding their collective labor, the actors are demanding better compensation in a media landscape transformed by streaming. Actors are also concerned with studios’ plans to use artificial intelligence in a way that could eliminate thousands of jobs.

The work stoppage has led to a near total shutdown of Hollywood, halting production of film and television projects.
