Jon Voight says he and President Donald Trump are working together to save Hollywood ... 'cause the way things are going, he thinks the whole thing could go down the drain -- just like Detroit, Michigan.

The actor gave his first interview to Variety since POTUS announced 100% tariffs on movies made outside the United States ... and he said he wants to keep Hollywood afloat by any means necessary.

Voight says Tinseltown really does need help ... and, it's good news the prez really cares about the film industry -- 'cause that means they can get people to roll up their sleeves and save it.

Pope Francis' death means the church needs to hold a conclave ... and, 'cause it's been more than a decade since the last one, some are looking to an Oscar-winning movie for a refresher.

According to Politico, a few Cardinals in the church are sitting down and watching "Conclave" starring Ralph Fiennes, Isabella Rossellini and Stanley Tucci ... just to pick up a few pointers before the real thing kicks off.

The last conclave was held in 2013, when Pope Francis was chosen after two days and multiple ballots ... and, many clerics in the church now were appointed by Francis -- and took no part in that event.

A$AP Rocky's whirlwind Met Gala hosting duties wouldn't have been possible had he been found guilty at his shooting trial ... a moment that's affected his music career -- but boosted his filmography!!!

While speaking to Variety, Rocky spoke out on how the attempted murder allegations levied by his ex-associate A$AP Relli were both “gut-wrenching and nerve-racking," but he was able to channel his emotions through his "Yung Felon" character in Spike Lee's "Highest 2 Lowest" film.

The trailer was released to match Met Gala's energy ... Rocky says portraying an inmate allowed him "to act like a piece of s*** who was going away for a long time but didn’t realize the consequences, because in real life, I knew exactly what the consequences felt like."

The Met Gala went off Monday night without a hitch -- well, almost. One major fail came courtesy of two hosts who seemed to blank on the star power of a major Bollywood icon in their midst.

Check it out ... Teyana Taylor and Ego Nwodim, both Vogue correspondents for the night, were chatting with Shah Rukh Khan -- better known to fans as "King Khan" -- but their questions felt more like awkward small talk than what's fit for Indian movie star royalty.

Shah Rukh -- who made history as the first male Bollywood star at the Met -- kept it humble -- but thankfully, designer Sabyasachi Mukherjee swooped in to gently drop the mic and inform Teyana & Ego about the true scale of his stardom.

Donald Trump’s big idea to slap a 100% tariff on films made outside the U.S. might sound like a patriot’s dream -- but according to one Hollywood heavyweight, it’s actually a 100% career-ender for the movie biz.

TMZ caught up with "Green Book" producer Charles Wessler, and let’s just say he didn’t sugarcoat his thoughts on Trump’s proposal to force filming back onto American soil ... telling us it's the stupidest idea he's ever heard ... but said it tracks, coming from Trump.

Charles breaks down how the movie biz can't survive the move -- budgets are part of it, but it’s also about creative freedom and authenticity ... and also the practicality of certain locations that can't be recreated in the U.S.

The small Mississippi town where the monster hit movie "Sinners" is set doesn't have a movie theater, which sucks for the townsfolk who want to know what all the hubbub is about ... but that's about to change, TMZ has learned.

Here's the deal ... Clarksdale, a town of about 15,000, hasn't had a movie theater for years, which means peeps have to travel an hour to the closest big city -- Memphis, Tennessee -- to see a flick ... and that's a chore most residents don't have the time or money to bother with, even to see a cultural phenomenon set in their own community.

Clarksdale’s Mayor Chuck Espy tells TMZ ... the city has been in talks with Warner Bros., and a special event is going to take place so everyone who wants to see the film on the big screen finally will have the chance!

Well, Dylan's brother -- who goes by Julz on Instagram and uses he/they pronouns -- fired off in the Instagram comments of the Times' post about the interview ... revealing he's "actually trans masc," not nonbinary.

American film and television actor Jermaine Hopkins was 18 years old when he played Steel -- the friendly thieving sidekick who is murdered in an alley -- in the crime/thriller film "Juice" back in 1992.

Pee-wee Herman’s beloved bicycle from the 1985 cult classic "Pee-wee’s Big Adventure" has officially found a new home — and for a hefty price.

A rep for Van Eaton Galleries tells TMZ ... the screen-used stunt bike, ridden by the late Paul Reubens in the film, sold for an impressive $125K on Saturday.

The bicycle was one of only 14 created for the film. The prop was custom-made and while it's been restored slightly to make it appear closer to what it looked like in the film, we're told the surviving elements have been kept intact.

Hidden behind this heavily altered photo is a Hollywood hunk who may not be your "father," but he's definitely zzzzaddy! Given the clues, see if you can guess who he is!

Rachel Zegler's a live-action princess -- and, her royally good looks will have fans' hearts fluttering on her birthday ... 'cause we've compiled her hottest shots to celebrate the occasion.

The actress turned 24 on Saturday ... and, while she's courted a decent amount of controversy over the last year or so, there's nothing controversial about how good she's looking in these pics.

Zegler might be known for rocking more conservative dresses in flicks like "Snow White" and "West Side Story" ... but, she's got tropical locales on the mind clearly -- ditching gowns for bikinis in these pics.

'Star Wars' fans are standing by, just like their favorite rebel pilots -- 'cause a big ticket item from the franchise is hitting the auction block ... but, you'll need a whole bunch of Galactic Credits to pick up this one.

A rebel pilot helmet used during the filming of 'The Empire Strikes Back' has been added to the Entertainment Memorabilia Live Auction in Los Angeles, taking place in September.

Propstore -- a trusted name in the memorabilia game -- is selling this custom-made helmet used during the Rebel Alliance's battle against the Empire on the ice planet Hoth.

Sebastian Stan fans can rest easy ... the star isn't having a Britney Spears-level meltdown -- 'cause he only shaved his head for a role.

We caught up with the actor in West Los Angeles Wednesday ... and, we had to ask him about his new bald head since ladies loved his luscious locks.

Stan tells us he shaved it all off for a new role, though he didn't go into detail on what that role might be. However, he's clear -- this isn't a midlife crisis ... at least, not yet, he jokes.

The controversial Western film "Rust" finally hits U.S. theaters Friday -- but instead of celebrating, director Joel Souza says he wishes he’d never made it at all.

Joel -- who was accidentally shot by Alec Baldwin in a tragic 2021 on-set incident that killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins by the same bullet -- said he initially rejected the thought of returning to "Rust" after his hospitalization. But the idea grew on him, especially knowing Halyna’s family wanted the film finished.

Souza reflected on the morning of the tragedy to The Guardian, calling it a domino effect of bad decisions, one after the other -- so he wishes he never went back to "Rust" post-shooting -- in fact, he wishes he hadn’t even written it!

American singer-songwriter and actress Jenny Lewis was just a teenager when she played Haley -- the tough girl from Nevada, traveling cross-country with her father -- in the 1989 family adventure film "The Wizard."

Joining Lewis on set included Fred Savage as the protective brother who flees Utah and heads to California, Corey ... and Luke Edwards as the sad and moody brother striving to win the Video Armageddon, Jimmy.

Her popularity in the late '80s also stemmed from her role in the film "Troop Beverly Hills."

Jenny is the lead singer of the indie rock band, Rilo Kiley, which is set to reunite at the Just Like Heaven music festival next month!
