Thursday, 20 November, 2025

In the second half of our conversation, newly elected SAG-AFTRA president Sean Astin opens up about lessons from the 2023 strike, the challenges of member communication and his goals for the next round of TV/Theatrical negotiations. Sean also reflects on what his most iconic roles — from Rudy to The Lord of the Rings — have taught him about leadership and fighting for what's right. *The views expressed by guests are their own and do not necessarily reflect the views of their organization or SAG-AFTRA.
