THE HOLLYWOOD STRIKES ARE OVER. HERE'S WHEN YOU COULD SEE YOUR FAVORITE STARS AND SHOWS RETURN

Missed your favorite actors? After nearly four months of striking, they're coming back.

- 

Wednesday's deal between striking actors and studios and streaming services won't immediately restore filming to its full swing. That will take months.

But the tentative agreement — which both sides say include extraordinary provisions - means that more than six months of labor strife in the film and television industries is drawing to a close. Soon, tens of thousands of entertainment sector workers could get back to work. And popular franchises, like "Deadpool,""Abbott Elementary" and "The Last of Us," will be a step closer to returning to screens.

Hollywood loves a happy ending. The actors strike might provide that, though there's still the chance of strike sequels in the months ahead.

Here's some of what will happen next:

SO IS THE ACTORS STRIKE REALLY OVER?

Picket lines are suspended and the only rallies on the horizon are celebratory ones that the actors union is promising will happen.

There are a couple of steps that need to happen before the deal becomes official. The national board of the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists reviewed the agreement, the details will be released and the guild's full membership will vote on it.

But when striking screenwriters - who started picketing May 2. reached their deal in September, their guild allowed writing work to resume before full ratification of the contract was complete.

While it's possible those votes scuttle the deal, the union's negotiating committee unanimously approved the deal and called off picketing.

WHAT'S IN THE DEAL?

The exact terms of the deal won't be released until later this week, but a few highlights are known.
