President Donald Trump has authorized a 100% tariff on all foreign-produced films entering the U.S., citing the need to protect the domestic movie industry from international competition. The directive, announced via his Truth Social platform, tasks the Department of Commerce and the U.S. Trade Representative with implementation.
The move comes as the U.S. film sector faces declining production and increasing competition from overseas markets offering financial incentives to filmmakers. The tariff aims to stem the outflow of production and bolster domestic industry growth.
