It's not as easy as just hiring new non-union actors. Quality matters, and most of the actual good actors that audiences want to see are union members. And other unions will usually refuse to cross a picket line or work with scabs so producers would also have to hire non-union crews, drivers, and writers.
There are non-union productions. But those are mainly smaller independent projects which never bring in much revenue.
