TL;DR Summary
Hollywood and the global film community are skeptical about Donald Trump's renewed threat to impose 100% tariffs on films made outside the U.S., viewing it as unlikely to be implemented and largely ineffective due to the global nature of film production. Industry leaders express confusion and disdain, emphasizing that such tariffs could harm independent and arthouse films more than major blockbusters, and highlight the need for U.S. incentives to support domestic filmmaking.
