The Emmy-winning actress Lindsay Wagner and stuntman Henry Kingi are the couple’s parents. At the age of 11, Mr. Kingi joined the Screen Actors Guild-American Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) in recognition of his performance in the 1994 movie “Double Dragon.”

His final jobs in the realm of “creature acting” were as the extraterrestrial Demogorgon in “Stranger Things” and the vicious bounty hunter Cad Bane in “The Book of Boba Fett,” before he started to be turned down due to his religious exemption.

Mr. Kingi and others continue to lose their jobs due to an unofficial “blacklist” that movie studios have created for people who haven’t taken the vaccine or kept up with the booster schedule, despite SAG-AFTRA’s pledge to protect its members from discrimination and the purported expiration of its vaccine mandate in May 2023.

“With the union’s overall stance on inclusion, diversity, and anti-discrimination, it’s just disheartening that there’s been no middle ground regarding this issue,” Mr. Kingi said.

The SAG-AFTRA is “committed to the broadest employment and involvement of our members,” among other things, regardless of ethnicity, political affiliation, or disability, according to the union’s constitution.

“We are proud to be a model of inclusion, democratic organization and governance,” its constitution reads.
