Horror film producer Jason Blum said the twin strikes by Hollywood writers and actors last year “did a lot of damage” to the business.

“What they really did is they just made the pie smaller,” Blum said Thursday on a special edition of Sean Evans’ YouTube show Hot Ones. Even if some people got paid more, there are fewer people working, he said.
