HBO Suspends Deal With "Wire" Creator Over Writers' Strike

 


According to his Twitter account, "Wire" Creator David Simon's 25-year deal with HBO has been suspended.

"#WGAStrong. On the day that HBO called to suspend my deal after 25 years of writing television for them, I was doing the write thing."

Simon currently performs multiple roles in his deal with HBO, not just as writer. He has, however, chosen to strongly support the writer strike both by walking in picket lines and suspending all other work for the entertainment platform. In a later tweet, he elaborated:

"Strike response and not unexpected."
