Statement from DGA President Christopher Nolan on the Bipartisan Motion Picture, Television, and Entertainment Revitalization Act

September 24, 2026

"The Motion Picture, Television, and Entertainment Revitalization Act is the most significant legislative effort in a generation to promote domestic film and television production, and the hundreds of thousands of jobs it supports.

This moment is the cumulation of years of work by the entertainment guilds and unions, in partnership with the MPA and lawmakers from both parties.

The DGA thanks Senators Scott and Schiff and Representatives Moran, Jack, and Friedman for advancing this important bipartisan effort to strengthen domestic production, create jobs, and further build on the critical work already underway through state incentives in California, New York, Illinois, Georgia, and elsewhere. We also acknowledge the leadership of Ambassador Voight on this issue.

We look forward to working with our partners in Congress, labor, the Administration, and at the studios to get this bill signed into law."

Christopher Nolan

President, Directors Guild of America
