The Writers Guild of America has issued an edict: do not work for Millennium Films.

The production company, which initially formed as an offshoot of 1980s schlock house Cannon Films, is behind the “Expendables” franchise and other low budget action movie fare like “The Hitman’s Wife” (and its sequel), “Olympus Has Fallen” (and its two sequels) and the two latter “Hellboy” revivals.

The note the WGA sent out to its members states that the company is “not signatory to the 2023 MBA,” which runs for three years. The guild says that Millennium has repeatedly not paid writers on time or provided them with owed residual payments.
