Spencer Pratt Says He Is Working With Trump on 25% Federal Film Tax Credit

Spencer Pratt claims he met with former President Trump to advocate for a 25% federal tax credit to help revitalize Hollywood, which has lost over 40,000 jobs, according to industry reports.

  • Former reality star Spencer Pratt met President Donald Trump at the Trump National Golf Club to advocate for a 25% federal film tax credit for the entertainment industry.
  • Following his unsuccessful Los Angeles mayoral bid in June, Pratt has pivoted toward legislative advocacy, leveraging his prior political endorsement from President Trump to gain access and influence.
  • Pratt said, "The adults in the room are actually trying to repatriate the most quintessential American industry," while criticizing California's $750 million incentive program and Attorney General Rob Bonta's antitrust lawsuit against the Paramount-WBD merger.
  • White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt responded to Pratt's announcement with supportive emojis, though the administration declined to formally comment on the potential revival of this federal incentives package.
  • Industry advocates, including actor Jon Voight, have long championed stackable incentives to combat the loss of over 40,000 jobs to international competitors like Canada, the UK, and Hungary.
