  1. Angelina Jolie’s father has convinced President Trump to impose tariffs on films made outside the US, threatening to wipe out Britain’s multibillion-pound film industry.

    Trump at the weekend pledged to impose a 100 per cent levy on all films “produced in foreign lands” to prevent Hollywood “dying a very fast death”.

    His announcement followed discussions with Jolie’s father, the Oscar-winning actor Jon Voight, who has been named by Trump as a “special ambassador” to Hollywood, responsible for returning American film-making to its “golden era”. Voight, 86, who starred in films such as Midnight Cowboy and Deliverance, has been holding talks with studio executives on behalf of Trump to come up with a plan to revive US film-making

  2. Well, we all knew Trump didn’t come up with this idiotic idea all by himself. He doesn’t have the imagination.

  3. This is the number one way to convince me to boycott all US made films.

  4. “Angelina Jolie’s father”

    …so Jon Voight? Just say Jon Voight – it has nothing to do with Angelina Jolie

  5. Her dad is a pos, use his name not hers shit ass journalist bots.

  6. Breaking news! Human turd continues to be a human turd.

  7. We gotta call Sigourney Weaver with the nail polish 💅🏻🐍

  8. So, Jon Voight wants to be blacklisted and to not work in the industry anymore. Noted.

  9. Thing is, movie producers won’t like it, because they are saving millions working in Canada, Ireland and the UK. But actors, and BTS folks who live in California probably are down for this. After Covid, then the strike, and the state of California making it super expensive, lots of industry folks were on Newsom to incentivize California productions. Looks like Trump took it upon himself

  10. I knew ever since he took a chunk out of Kramer’s arm, he hasn’t been right

  11. Awesome. Can’t wait to see Jon V in the next Anaconda sequel. Now him and Sorbo should have no trouble finding work, right?

  12. Trump’s whole thing with Hannibal Lecter stems from him confusing confused Voight with Anthony Hopkins. Voight has always been MAGA, and the first time Trump mentioned Hannibal Lecter it was clear he had forgotten Voight’s name.

  13. #Out of work actor whose residuals dried up because of streaming lashes out on industry that rejects him

  14. This is proof right here that you can whisper anything in Trump’s ear and if he likes it or you enough he’ll do it.

  15. And this is why she hates him. Well one of the many reasons anyway

  16. Echk it’s so creepy to think Jon voight is one of the men behind the curtain advising trump

  17. “Angelina Jolie’s father” bless me, what do they teach them at these schools!

  18. Does anyone else not recall when Voigt had some bizarre award given to him by Trump last term?
