'Walking Dead' spinoffs, 'Interview With the Vampire' can resume with actors' union approval

Two spinoffs of “The Walking Dead” and the next season of “Interview With the Vampire” will be resuming production despite the Hollywood strikes after reaching a deal with the actors' union. The union granted what's known as an interim agreement to the three shows on cable channel AMC. The agreements, which have been granted to hundreds of films and TV shows, allow productions outside the alliance of major studios to resume, so long as they grant actors what they were asking for before the strike broke out. The shows are the highest profile series yet to get the deals, which some actors say are undermining their strike.
