The stars showed support for the writers strike during their acceptance speeches at the MTVAwards.
Last night's MTV Movie and TV Awards was a more subdued affair than normal with the backdrop of the ongoing Writers' Guild of America strike that has crippled Hollywood, whilst the battle for fair pay rages on across Tinseltown.
As a result, those receiving their awards also sent in pre-recorded acceptance speeches, with many of the recipients of the awards using the platform to back up the striking writers, including Pedro Pascal and Jennifer Coolidge. Pascal won the awards for best hero and best duo, for his performance alongside his British co-star Bella Ramsey in HBO's The Last of Us, which also took home the award for best show, and Pascal paid tribute to writers and creators Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann.
Speaking as Coolidge accepted the comedic genius award, the White Lotus star said she stood "side by side" with those on strike, saying they were "fighting for the rights of artists everywhere". Stranger Things star Joseph Quinn, who won the award for best breakthrough performance for his role as Eddie Munson, also took the time to praise the strike - which has halted production on the fifth season of Netflix's flagship show.
