American actor Whoopi Goldberg has condemned Donald Trump‘s new plan to impose a 100 per cent tariff on movies made overseas.

Trump brought his brewing trade war to the door of the film industry on May 4th, imposing his plan to introduce tariffs in an attempt to revive Hollywood as productions increasingly turn their back on it in favour of more cost-effective shooting locations from overseas, such as the UK.

On his own social media platform, Truth Social, the President discussed the American filmmaking industry, claiming that it is dying a “very fast death” due to the incentives that other countries were offering US filmmakers, drawing their projects out of the country.

“WE WANT MOVIES MADE IN AMERICA, AGAIN!,” he added. As a result, the President is now imposing an 100% tariff on all films “produced in Foreign Lands”.

During an episode of The View that aired on May 6th, which featured a panel of female professionals from different walks of life discussing new issues, she said, “You can’t do that”, regarding Trump’s plan.

She continued: “When you go over to another country to work, you work with the people who are there. We don’t import our folks to go over there. Who are you going to put this tariff on? The production? The studio? What are you talking about?”

Goldberg emphasised her objection to the move: “Please stop. The bottom line is tax incentives. If you want to change, you have to change it in the states, and make it available for people to shoot here. Don’t stop us from going over and shooting overseas, because then you’re limiting us.”

The EGOT pointed to the cultural importance of movies not forced into a box, noting, “We teach people who will never get to America what America is all about. We show them who we are. If you impose a tax like this, you’re saying that we’re not good enough, and that’s not the case. We’re the best in the world.”

Following Trump’s announcement, the White House published a statement clarifying that “no final decisions” were made on movie tariffs.
