Trump says non-US movies to be hit with 100% tariffs

President Donald Trump has announced plans to impose 100% tariffs on foreign-made films, claiming that international incentives for film production threaten national security and contribute to the decline of the U.S. movie industry. While the scope of the tariffs remains unclear, particularly regarding United States studios filming abroad or streaming platforms the move has sparked concern among key film-producing countries like Australia and New Zealand as The announcement adds to Trump’s broader tariff strategy, which has disrupted global trade and strained relations with China, prompting retaliatory measures and uncertainty across various industries, including entertainment and technology.
