Tom Cruise was asked about President Trump’s tariff proposal for films “made on foreign lands” in Seoul on Thursday night’s “Task: Impossible – Final Estimate” and how the policy applies to spy blockbusters around the world.

During the event, a Korean journalist spoke in a stage translation and asked, "I want to ask this question to anyone who wants to. I've seen this movie and I've seen it filmed at many different locations around the world, including Africa. Of course, we all know that President Trump makes up so many films in both overseas production and films.

Cruise responded to the UK's inquiry quickly by talking directly to the translator about his microphone. He can be heard saying, "We would rather answer questions about this movie. Thank you," ending with a smile. The host responded to the microphone: “I think this is a fair answer.”

Of course, the "Task: Impossible" star wouldn't be the last representative of Hollywood to ask about tariff proposals. Starting Tuesday at the Cannes Film Festival, more American talents may face an equally impossible task, a global market that could unleash a storm of questions about the potential impact of Trump’s policies, both of which members of the media and international industry may operate with U.S. companies.

The day before Friday's meeting of studio heads that formed the Film Association, asked Cruise's strategy to address Trump's tariff proposal.

Asking about the cruising line is not accurate, as Trump has not imposed any tariffs on overseas film productions. There is still overwhelming uncertainty as to how the government will implement such policies, or whether it will affect releases such as “Task: Impossible” produced by American companies, but to a large extent, releases shot in various international regions. (Not to mention it can be released in theaters in just a few weeks.) The MPA has not issued a formal statement in response to the tariff proposal and there is no arrangement for a seat between the organization and the government.

Trump initially revealed his intentions in an article on his social media platform Truth Social on Sunday night, saying foreign incentives shift production overseas "national security threats" and wrote with all caps, "We hope we want to make movies in the United States again!" The news sparked widespread confusion throughout the industry, which did not get a follow-up statement from the White House that "the final decision has not been made on "tax tariffs on movies."

The Seoul "Task: Impossible" press conference consisted of panels, which included director Christopher McQuarrie and co-stars Hayley Atwell, Simon Pegg, Pom Klementieff and Greg Tarzan Davis. "Final Estimation" released in the theater on May 23.
