Hollywood filmmaker Christopher Nolan is one of the most celebrated directors in the world.

The Oscar-winning director has shared his thoughts on US President Donald Trump’s movies’ tariffs proposal.

In 2025, Trump proposed 100% tax on films made outside of America, claiming that the American industry is being “stolen” by other countries.

The Dark Knight creator, who is the newly elected president for the Directors Guild of America, commented on the matter.

He told Variety, “I don’t know how a tariff system would work.”

The 55-year-old said there are more conversations that are more important and require more focus than movie traiifs.

He added “I will say that since President Trump has started bandying these ideas around, there’s a much more serious conversation from the studios about how to improve the situation in the United States – to be perfectly frank about it.”

Nolan emphasized the incentives that will be lost and stressed upon the risks on unemployment.

His upcoming film The Odyssey is filmed in the Mediterranean following the story of Greek epic by Homer.
