Oscar-winning director Christopher Nolan has shared his opinion on proposed tariffs for controversial films.
Nolan, who is the newly elected president of the Directors Guild of America, commented on the matter and set priorities for the company.
The president of the United States has proposed a 100% tax on films made outside the United States.
“I don’t know how a tariff system would work,” said the oppenheimer director.
while talking to Variety, The 55-year-old filmmaker opened up that there are more serious conversations that require a lot of attention than movie rates.
He said in a statement: “I will say that since President Trump started spreading these ideas, there is a much more serious conversation coming from the studios about how to improve the situation in the United States, to be perfectly frank about it.”
The dark knight The filmmaker emphasized the incentives that will be lost and highlighted the unemployment that will prevail in the country.
“If you look at overall consumer spending on media, entertainment and our work, it is extremely stable.
“But we are seeing a 35 to 40 percent decline in employment for our members.”
Nolan raised these concerns after filming The odyssey around the Mediterranean.
