EXCLUSIVE: Stop the presses! We have Jon Voight's proposal to “make Hollywood Grand again” and you can read it in full.
Until now, the details have been rare in terms of the Oscar winner and the special ambassador to Hollywood presented to Donald Trump this weekend “to see Hollywood prosper and make films bigger and more important than ever, as he says, and see the productions come back to America and Hollywood”, as said on Monday.
Now we know exactly what Voight put in front of Trump and certain studios and banners during last week – and yes, he also includes television.

To this, a return to the closed financial and syndication rule is suggested in the hope of overthrowing what Voight calls “draconian license conditions”. In subjective terms similar to the measures used in the United Kingdom and Canada, Voight and the team want eligible productions “respect a minimum” cultural test “threshold”
In the event that you are wondering who is in the reticle here, the proposal indicates that “applies to the content produced for theatrical distribution; American distribution networks; American wired chains; streaming services (including, for example, Netflix, Amazon, Disney, Apple, Peacock, Paramount + and Hulu); And digital platforms (for example, everyone.
