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.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom reached out to the Trump administration on Monday with hopes that the two can pair up and create a $7.5 billion federal film tax credit to help out the movie business.

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.
