ABC also confirms that the season 32 premiere will proceed as planned.
“This includes WGA member Matt Walsh.”
Walsh announced last week that he would not be joining the competition until the writers' strike was resolved.

The WGA considered the show a struck production, which led to criticism of Walsh’s involvement.
Still, tensions were running high enough that ABC reportedly contemplated postponing the season 32 premiere.
However, SAG-AFTRA remains on strike and writers are encouraged to join their colleagues on the picket lines.
