Jonathan Pryce Worries He Could Be Denied Entry To U.S. For Speaking Mind On Trump's Tariff Plan
EXCLUSIVE: The Crown star Jonathan Pryce has joked that he worries about being barred from America for voicing his full views on Donald Trump's vision to slap tariffs on foreign films. Speaking to Deadline's Baz Bamigboye on the BAFTA TV Awards red carpet, Pryce said he was planning to visit New York in the coming weeks and did not wish to say 'too much' about tariffs. More from Deadline BAFTA TV Awards Winners Unveiled - Updating Live "There Is No Future In Forgetting": Watch Great Americans Medal Recipient Ava DuVernay's Smithsonian Speech How To Watch The 2025 BAFTA Television Awards On TV And Online 'I want to get in easily, I don't want to be sent back,' he laughed. Pryce continued: 'The frustrating thing about the tariffs is he [Trump] announces it, panics everybody by not telling them the details. So you've got people in Cannes now trying to do deals and it's going to be impossible until he says exactly what it is and how he is going to police it.' The Welsh actor was nominated for Best Supporting Actor at the BAFTA TV Awards for his role as David Cartwright in Slow Horses. He said Slow Horses' success has been a slow-burner because Apple TV+ did not overpublicize the series and allowed audiences to discover it for themselves. Trump has made clear that his shock plans to slap a 100% tariff on film imports would not be included in a trade deal with the UK, where Pryce films Slow Horses. The UK would be particularly vulnerable to any movie tariff, given that the country has established itself as one of Hollywood's top destinations for offshoring shoots, thanks to tax incentives, a skilled workforce, and a shared language. Trump's bombshell announcement came in a Truth Social post last weekend, telling followers he planned to apply a tariff to 'any and all movies coming into our country that are produced in foreign lands.' The president later said he did not intend to 'hurt' the entertainment industry, adding that he intended to meet with studio chiefs to 'make sure they're happy.' Jon Voight, the Oscar-winner and special ambassador to Hollywood, presented his plan to 'make Hollywood great again' to Trump. Deadline got hold of Voight's proposal document, which states that if a U.S.-based production 'could have been produced in the U.S., but the producer elects to produce in a foreign country and receives a production tax incentive therefor, a tariff will be placed on that production equal to 120% of the value of the foreign incentive received.'
