Like on principle, I know that the writer’s and actor’s guild and union shit is all good. I don’t think all the success from a movie or show should go 100% to the company, but it still feels weird saying that a Hollywood actor is working class.

What do y’all think? Am I just being a dumbass?

any actor who has a lot of wealth isn't a worker anymore. so many of them(esp the successful actors) are also nepo babies who came from wealth. they are definitely in a unique situation but at some point when you have enough wealth and/or generational wealth, you're not really working class anymore. but that is an elite few actors who command that much wealth. Many do well but they aren't getting millions of dollars per film/episode.
