A factor that might make things more complicated for some actors is that TV/film is much more likely to have solid re-starting plans before Broadway will. Are actors going to turn down TV/film opportunities for a theater role in a production that may get delayed?

I think that some actors are going to be reluctant to sign contracts for a production that may not happen in the expected time frame. TV/film has always been more lucrative, but at least there was some expectation of some level of pay for a Broadway show. Most recent flops still ran for several weeks before closing. But with the pandemic, I doubt that actors will get paid during any delay period, which could last for several months.
