WGA Bars Members From Working on Martin Scorsese-Produced ‘Wall of White’ Movie From Randall Emmett’s Convergence Entertainment

The WGA West has barred members from working on the disaster movie 'Wall of White,' in the works from producers Randall Emmett and Martin Scorsese.

Moreover, his Convergence Entertainment Group banner is not a signatory to the guild’s Minimum Basic Agreement, which covers the work of screenwriters. The WGA maintains that Emmett previously failed to pay more than $700,000 owned in pension and health contributions and interest due to four writers who worked on the TV series “Pump,” which aired in 2020 on Urbanflix.com. “The Guild demanded a surety bond from Fifty Feet after determining that it was not financially responsible and was unlikely to meet its MBA obligations in connection with several theatrical motion picture projects, including ‘Cash Out,’ ‘Alarum’ and ‘Epiphany,’ ” the WGA stated.
