Summary
Film tariffs are becoming a key issue in UK-US trade negotiations after Donald Trump announced a potential 100% charge on foreign-made movies to support the struggling American film industry. The UK government is maintaining a “calm and steady approach” to discussions, aiming to alleviate pressure on local businesses. UK filmmakers expressed concern that the tariffs could lead to job losses for freelancers in the industry, with one union warning it could be a “knock-out blow” for their livelihoods.
