The Directors Guild of America has voted to ratify a four-year contract intended to preserve members’ jobs amid a historic downturn in film and TV production.

Christopher Nolan, the DGA president, and Russell Hollander, the national executive director, told members Thursday that the contract had been approved “overwhelmingly.”

“Throughout this process, our focus was clear: protect our members, strengthen the Guild, and address the challenges facing our industry during a period of profound change,” the guild leaders wrote. “This incredible show of support from our membership for this new contract shows the strength of our unity and our solidarity.”
