Kristen Stewart Eyes Leaving U.S., Says She’d ‘Shove’ Her Movies ‘Down The Throat’ Of Americans

Actress Kristen Stewart said she’s considering leaving the United States, adding that she would still make films for American audiences, even if it meant “shov[ing] them down the throat of the American people.” 

The 35-year-old made the remarks during an interview with “The Times,” in the U.K. Stewart is currently promoting her directorial debut, “The Chronology of Water,” which was shot in Latvia because it “would have been impossible to do in the States.” She condemned President Donald Trump’s proposed tariffs on movies made outside of the United States, calling them “terrifying.”

“Reality is breaking completely under Trump,” Stewart told the outlet. “But we should take a page out of his book and create the reality we want to live in.” 

When the interviewer asked if she was planning to continue living in the United States, the actress replied, “Probably not. I can’t work freely there. But I don’t want to give up completely. I’d like to make movies in Europe and then shove them down the throat of the American people.”

The president reiterated in September that he intends to impose tariffs to incentivize production in the United States. 

“Our movie making business has been stolen from the United States of America, by other Countries, just like stealing ‘candy from a baby.’ California, with its weak and incompetent Governor, has been particularly hard hit! Therefore, in order to solve this long time, never ending problem, I will be imposing a 100% Tariff on any and all movies that are made outside of the United States,” the president shared in a Truth Social post, as The Daily Wire previously reported.

In May last year, Trump said Hollywood was dying a “very fast death,” calling incentives from other countries to produce movies outside of the United States “a national security threat.” 

“Other Countries are offering all sorts of incentives to draw our filmmakers and studios away from the United States. Hollywood, and many other areas within the U.S.A., are being devastated,” the president said at the time. “WE WANT MOVIES MADE IN AMERICA, AGAIN!”
