The Writers Guild of America (WGA) expelled two members, Park Chan-wook and Don McKellar, for working on HBO's "The Sympathizer" during the 2023 strike. Anthony Cipriano received a suspension until May 1, 2026, a public censure, and a lifetime ban from being a strike captain for his work on "The Last Breath." The WGA did not detail the specific violations but stated that the decisions to publicize the disciplines were made by the board. These actions follow previous disciplinary measures against other writers who violated strike rules.
