Does anyone have any good ideas for getting from The Hague to Paris,
whether via Antwerp or otherwise?

Alternatively - does anyone know if this strike is actually sure to
happen, or are these things called off at the last minute?

This strike has been publicized for some time, maybe weeks. Dutch labor
unions are so accommodating and user friendly in announcing job actions,
but they never back down once the strike call is made, unless the
manglement (deliberate) backs down first. Strike for another day to go
to Paris.
