Trump says US to impose 100% tariff on foreign films
Bangkok Post
|October 01, 2025
President Donald Trump said on Monday he would impose a 100% tariff on all films produced overseas that are then sent into the US, repeating a threat made in May that would upend Hollywood's global business model.

The step signals Trump's willingness to extend protectionist trade policies into cultural industries, raising uncertainty for studios that depend heavily on cross-border co-productions and international box-office revenue.
“Our movie making business has been stolen from the United States of America, by other Countries, just like stealing candy from a baby,’ Trump said ina post on his Truth Social.
However, it was not immediately clear what legal authority Trump would use to impose a 100% tariff on foreign-made films.
