Trump calls on Voight, Stallone and Gibson for Hollywood revamp


Full story

President-elect Donald Trump has announced a new approach to Hollywood. He is appointing three well-known actors to serve as his “eyes and ears” in the entertainment industry.

Trump introduced Jon Voight, Mel Gibson and Sylvester Stallone as part of his team. He believes these industry veterans can help address what he describes as a “troubled place.”

In a Truth Social post Thursday, Jan. 16, Trump said in part, “They will serve as Special Envoys to me for the purpose of bringing Hollywood, which has lost much business over the last four years to Foreign Countries, BACK—BIGGER, BETTER, AND STRONGER THAN EVER BEFORE!”

The exact roles of the trio remain unclear. However, all three actors have previously expressed public support for Trump.

Voight has been one of Trump’s most outspoken advocates in Hollywood. In a 2019 video, Voight said, “I know you will agree with me when I say our president has our utmost respect and our love.”

Voight’s loyalty to Trump was also recognized when the president awarded him the National Medal of Arts in 2019.

Stallone has also demonstrated support for Trump. Recently, he attended the America First Policy Gala in Palm Beach, Florida. During the event, Stallone introduced Trump as the “second George Washington.”

Gibson joined the list of supporters during the 2024 presidential election. He publicly endorsed Trump, stating his concerns about the opposition. In an interview referring to Vice President Kamala Harris, Gibson said, “I know what it’ll be like if we let her in, and that ain’t good.”

For now, the specific plans and goals for this team remain unclear. However, Trump has stated he intends to consider any ideas they propose for revitalizing the entertainment industry.
