It sounds as though Gov. Gavin Newsom is just as confused as the rest of the world over the logistics behind President Donald Trump's proposed 100% tariff on foreign films -- but he isn't about to let that interfere with his plans for Hollywood.

Gavin Newsom (D) is offering to partner with the Trump administration to create a federal film tax credit program worth at least $7.5 billion to boost domestic film production, his office said late Monday.

While President Trump has called for tariffs to help the U.S. film business, others are pushing for a federal tax incentive that they say could boost domestic production.
