Gavin Newsom Meets Privately With Trump Ambassador Jon Voight in LA
Gov. Gavin Newsom and Jon Voight, one of President Donald Trump's three Hollywood ambassadors, met in Century City on Thursday to discuss the actor's 'Make Hollywood Great Again' proposal. A Newsom aide and a representative for Voight confirmed the meeting to Politico. 'They shared a commitment to working together to help to build up the film industry in the U.S. — particularly California and Los Angeles,' the outlet reported. Former Warner Bros. executive DeeDee Myers, who is director of the Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development, was also present. The meeting came as California's $750 million film tax credit plan remains in the air as state budget cuts have weighed down the process. The pair of California Film & TV Jobs Act bills passed their first floor votes in Sacramento this week, though it's unclear if Trump's tariffs and/or Los Angeles wildfire recovery efforts could impact the outcome. If successful, the bills would expand the types of productions that are eligible for tax incentives, offer a 35% tax rate to L.A.-based productions and increase the program's cap from $330 million to $750 million. Newsom also previously suggested a $7.5 billion film and TV national tax incentive program last month. 'The governor is fully committed to this proposed $750 million investment in California's film and television industry, which will protect good-paying jobs and support the workers who power the state's creative economy,' a spokesperson for Newsom said in a statement. The Oscar-winning actor's May proposal includes a carrot-and-stick approach, mixing tax incentives, foreign film tariffs and co-production treaties to encourage U.S. movie production. Mel Gibson and Sylvester Stallone are Trump's other two Hollywood ambassadors. TheWrap has reached out to Newsom and Voight's teams for further comment.

Liverpool star drops contract hint: 'It's up to them'
Liverpool star drops contract hint: 'It's up to them' By Peter Staunton © IMAGO - Arne Slot Richard Hughes Liverpool 2024-25 Diaz talking to other clubs Diaz has confirmed that he and his representatives have spoken to different teams about opportunities this summer. 'We are talking with other clubs,' he admitted in comments reported by Pipe Sierra. 'It's normal in the transfer window and we're looking at the best for us. Advertisement With his Liverpool deal worth a reported £55k per week, Diaz might well feel he's worth a lot more given he's contributed 13 goals during a Premier League-winning season. But the club don't yet appear to see it that way, reportedly content to keep Diaz at the club until his contract runs out on his current wages rather than upping his pay to a desired £150k per week or thereabouts. 'It's up to the club' says Diaz On international duty this week ahead of a CONMEBOL World Cup qualification match against Peru, Diaz offered a hint that he would be willing to engage in talks with his employers. Advertisement 'If they offer us a good renewal or I stay there for the two years [of current contract], I'll be happy. Now it's up to them." The ball is in Liverpool's court and there is a Diaz endgame in sight. Put simply: The club have the choice to retain for two years and inevitably lose him on a free. They could opt to cash in this summer and bank €85m from Saudi Arabia with Al-Nassr reportedly keen to add the 28-year-old.
