This episode tackles the fallout from President Trump’s proposed tariffs on foreign production—from the perspective of a Ian Poake navigating uncertainty in Hollywood.
We unpack how a 100% tariff on work done outside the U.S. could drive up production costs, scare off greenlighters, and threaten countless jobs in pre- and post-production.
Hear why these policies, despite aiming to “bring Hollywood home,” risk alienating international partners, stalling new projects, and sparking market volatility.
Our guest shares firsthand concerns about the ripple effects on acting opportunities, the global supply chain, and the delicate balance of tax credits that once lured crews abroad.
Whether you’re an actor, filmmaker, or industry insider, this conversation delivers a clear-eyed analysis of policy impacts and offers strategies to advocate for a sustainable creative economy.
Tune in before the next announcement upends your career plans.
