"Stranger Things" and other Hollywood shows halt production as WGA strike enters second week, leaving actors and contractors out of work.As Hollywood prepares for its second week of the Writers Guild of America strike, the effects are beginning to be felt for all who work in the industry.

One of the hardest hit workers in the industry by the strike are actors, who are left powerless as production for shows and movies comes to a halt."I was scheduled for a netflix show, and then it actually got canceled," said Nelson Hill, an actor.More VideosSunday's live broadcast of the MTV Movie and TV awards was canceled after the host, Drew Barrymore, pulled out due to the strike, and instead a pre-taped show aired.

"I stand here before you tonight side by side with my sisters and brothers from the WGA fighting for the rights of artists everywhere," she said. "Writing does not stop when filming begins. While we're excited to start production with our amazing cast and crew, it is not possible during this strike. We hope a fair deal is reached soon so we can all get back to work. Until then -- over and out," the Duffer brothers tweeted through the @strangerwriters account."I want to say the quantity of jobs during the week are down about 30 to 40%," said Bryan Godwin, owner of Wood and Nickel Lighting Incorporated.
