The global TV and film industry is bracing itself as US President Trump prepares to widen his trade war this week.
Since taking office, Trump has announced tariffs on imports from countries such as China, Canada and Mexico, and targeted goods including cars and steel.
He is preparing to announce a sweeping round of new tariffs on imports set to take effect today (2 April), which he has dubbed “Liberation Day”.
How and if the TV and film industry will be targeted is not yet clear. But it seems only a matter of time before filmmakers worldwide are caught up in the trade war in some form.
