Mel Gibson, Donald Trump’s Hollywood ambassador, will have trouble with his latest movie.

Trump has announced a 100% tariff on all movies made outside the United States.


Gibson is shooting his two part “Passion of the Christ” sequel, and it’s not in Altoona, trust me.

Shooting is set for Rome, other locations in Italy, Morocco, and Israel.

It’s a two part movie that is costing Gibson, a Hollywood pariah, hundreds of millions of dollars.

Trump knows nothing about the movie business, but he likes to make random declarations which have to be walked back later.

I can’t wait to hear how “Passion of the Christ 2” will get some exemption from Trump, who’s obviously forgotten that cronies like Jon Voight and Sylvester Stallone also make movies abroad.

Another movie this will likely affect: Christopher Nolan’s “Odyssey,” shooting in Greece, Morocco, Sicily, and the United Kingdom.

A lot of countries subsidize movies if a certain percentage of it is filmed there which is one of the reasons a lot of movies are filmed across several countries.

I have trouble seeing how they could even practically implement this but I am sure an LA judge will smack it down in its opening credits.

He knows nothing about sound, responsible governance, either.

This is another example of Trump’s ignorance and stupidity; few movies are 100 percent American made, often filmed in overseas locations with production elements completed in other countries.
