Big names in Australia’s screen industry including Simon Baker, Bryan Brown and Justine Clarke came together in Canberra today to demand a big change on streaming services.

The screen industry delegation, including Simon Baker, Bryan Brown, Marta Dusseldorp and Justine Clarke, were in Parliament House on Tuesday, proposing that major streaming platforms — also including Stan, Disney+ and Binge — be required to spend 20 per cent of their local revenue on “new Australian drama, documentary and children’s content”.

“It would create up to 10,000 sustainable local jobs and would unleash the potential of the local industry, which would, over time, double in size,” he said.
