“Volunteered with some fellow @sagaftra members that I LOVE today,” Washington wrote on Twitter. “Any bit helps! We’re in this together!”

Their reunion comes five years after the ABC series finale aired in April 2018. The Scandal cast last got together in July 2020 for Seth Rudetsky and James Wesley’s “Stars in the House“ live stream series benefiting The Actors Fund. (Watch the cast reflect on surprising secrets.)

In case you need a refresher, the series followed political fixer Olivia Pope (Washington) and her team who made unbelievable sacrifices to manage crises affecting the nation’s elite, like the President of the United States (Goldwyn) and his wife, Mellie (Young). All seven seasons are available to stream on Hulu.

The Scandal stars, along with SAG-AFTRA’s other 160,000+ members, are currently on strike following failed contract negotiations with the AMPTP. Among the key issues on the table, as explained by our sister publication Variety, are “streaming residuals, artificial intelligence, and pension and health contributions.
