Megan Fox Criticized for Breaking SAG-AFTRA Strike Guidelines with Halloween Costume Amid Ongoing Actors' Strike

Actress Megan Fox draws ire for violating SAG-AFTRA's call for solidarity amidst strike, expressing rebellion by flaunting a "Kill-Bill" themed costume at a Halloween party and tagging the union's account in defiance of specific guidelines.

  • Megan Fox and her fiancĂ© Machine Gun Kelly drew criticism for wearing a 'Kill Bill'-themed Halloween costume and tagging SAG-AFTRA in an Instagram post, in contravention of the guild's request for solidarity amid actors' strike.
  • Several actors, including Lisa Ann Walter from Abbott Elementary, criticized Fox's costume and disobeying SAG-AFTRA rules.
  • SAG-AFTRA had issued guidelines for its members to avoid flaunting costumes from certain projects on social media amid the ongoing strike, though the memo was later taken down following criticism from several high-profile actors, including 'This is Us' star Mandy Moore and Ryan Reynolds.
  • Fox's actions came under fire from some of her fellow SAG-AFTRA members, with one comment stating that Fox's post undermined the union and hurt its leverage with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP).
  • The ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike, which commenced in July, is centered on issues such as additional compensation due to the success of streaming services, use of AI in Hollywood, and attempts at negotiating a fair deal for contract earners.
