Trump Proposes 100% Tariff on Foreign-Made Films, Shocking Hollywood
In a startling move, President Trump has announced a plan to impose a 100% tariff on foreign-made movies, citing a decline in the American film industry as a driving factor. This proposal has sent shockwaves through Hollywood, with many industry leaders expressing confusion and concern about the potential impacts. Notable figures like Jon Voight have been involved in discussions related to the tariffs, and there are fears that such measures could devastate not only Hollywood but also international film markets, particularly in Canada and the UK. The film industry reacted with skepticism, with stocks for major studios like Netflix and Warner Bros. experiencing declines following the announcement. As the White House attempts to clarify the logistics and legality of the proposal, industry insiders are left wondering about the future of filmmaking in the United States.
