SYDNEY (Reuters) -New Zealand will allocate more budget funds to give rebates to foreign studios for filming movies in the country - a move which follows U.S. President Donald Trump's announcement of 100% tariffs on films made outside the United States. New Zealand, where the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy was shot, has become a popular filming location for Hollywood movies due to lower costs and government incentives. When announcing the 100% tariffs this month, Trump said Hollywood was dying a "very fast death" due to incentives offered by other countries.
