Dr Dominic Lees said: “The proposed American tariffs present a significant challenge to British filmmaking at a difficult time. The Culture, Media and Sport Committee report outlines practical solutions to support a vulnerable industry - enhanced tax incentives for domestic productions, a 5% streaming levy to fund British drama, and support for freelancers through a dedicated Commissioner. If implemented, these measures could help buffer our industry against Trump's tariff policy. The British film industry contributes both culturally and economically - these recommendations offer a path forward."

Professor Lisa Purse said: “These potential US tariffs come at a critical moment when our research already shows freelancers are facing unprecedented challenges. Freelancers make up nearly half of the UK film and television workforce and over a third  are considering leaving within five years. Tariffs could accelerate this exodus. 

“American productions are vital to our £11 billion industry, and their withdrawal would disproportionately impact our most vulnerable workers. Without the government implementing our recommended protections, including industry-wide employment standards and dedicated ministerial support, we risk losing the talent that makes British film and TV globally competitive."
