The acting profession has existed for as long as humanity has existed. Storytelling is as essential as breathing to many, as the current film industry will tell one. But actors only exist with writers, and each profession deserves equal respect. With many big names joining the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike, Vanessa Hudgens is among the latest to add her name.

The High School Musical actress, engaged to Colorado Rockies shortstop Cole Tucker, is a household name in Hollywood. The Hollywood writers’ strike has been gaining momentum since mid-July, demanding fairer pay and better working conditions. With A-listers from across the industry joining the cause, Hudgens also lent her support with her water brand.

Vanessa Hudgens Brings Cali Water to the SAG-AFTRA Strike

Writers for the Screen Actors Guild have been protesting against the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) since July 14. The two parties failed to reach a negotiation for better wages, as well as the use of artificial intelligence in the industry. The protests have reached a humongous scale, with numerous big names joining the picket line.

Even the Oppenheimer cast recently walked out of the film’s London premiere in support. Now, Vanessa Hudgens is joining the cause, and she comes bearing gifts. The Tick, Tick…Boom actress has been promoting her cactus water brand, Caliwater, which was the perfect solution for this July heat.

“We handed out Caliwater at the Disney lot to all the Sag-Aftra members on strike, who are fighting for fair wages and protection for the generation of actors & performers to come. The Union is strong, and we are proud to keep everyone hydrated in the heat!🌟🌵💧” part of the caption of Hudgens’ post read. Cole Tucker was a proud fiance and posted a heart emoji as a comment.

Hudgens later shared the video to her Instagram story, where she can be seen driving the truck with her face promoting the brand. For many reasons, the strike must be a success because actors like Hudgens may face a bleak future otherwise.

Hudgens is a celebrated name in the industry, but her fans may need to be treated to new content from her. The SAG-AFTRA Union has warned that the acting profession may be lost unless drastic measures are taken, and the current strike is successful.

The announcement was made at an informational meeting on ZOOM, where Hudgens was also present. So, here is to hoping that the efforts of thousands of people conclude successfully.
