Trumps says

In a step that could shake the entertainment industry, President Trump said that he instructed his government to put a “100% tariff” on films that were not produced in the USA that were not produced in this country.

On Sunday he posted on his social platform for truth that he authorized the Ministry of Commerce and the United States' sales representative to set up the tariff.

“The film industry in America dies very quickly,” he wrote. “Other countries offer all possible incentives to pull away our filmmakers and studios from the USA. Hollywood and many other areas in the USA are destroyed.

“Therefore, I authorize the Ministry of Commerce and the Association of the United States in order to immediately start with the process of introducing a 100% tariff on all films in our country that are produced in foreign countries. We want to be films that are made in America again!”

Hollywood has been in countries such as Great Britain, Australia, Ireland and Spain for years for their tax incentives.

The Disney Sister Company Marvel Studios could also be hit by the tariffs. It started to film recently Avengers: Doomsday (May 1, 2026) in London and Plant to film Sony Co-Production Spider-Man: Brand new day (July 31, 2026) this year too. Great Britain offers generous tax incentives that have contributed to removing the production of Atlanta where Avengers: Infinity War And Avengers: Endgame filmed.

There is a cottage industry of low-budget vod films that turn in Eastern European countries such as Romania and Bulgaria for low labor costs and tax incentives. (Think about: all low budget with an aging action star.)

Trump, of course, announced a plan last month to place at least 10 percent tariffs for goods from every country that is traded with the USA with the USA, the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average were sunk both because of the fear of a recession.
