"That’s my Heisenberg"- Fans in praises of Bryan Cranston as he addresses Bob Iger in SAG-AFTRA speech

After days of the SAG-AFTRA strike, where one of the main agendas has been the use of AI to replace human effort, Bryan Cranston, the star of Breaking Bad hit back at big studios, and especially at Disney's Bob Iger, in a fiery speech that left supporters thrilled.

Cranston was among the many celebrities present at the rally today. But unlike others who have addressed the looming threat of AI and the increasing wage gap, he delivered a message to Bob Iger directly. He said:

"We’ve got a message for Mr. Iger...I know, sir, that you look [at] things through a different lens. We don’t expect you to understand who we are. But we ask you to hear us, and beyond that to listen to us when we tell you we will not be having our jobs taken away and given to robots."

He continued:

"We will not have you take away our right to work and earn a decent living. And lastly, and most importantly, we will not allow you to take away our dignity! We are union through and through, all the way to the end!"
