HOLLYWOOD AMBASSADOR JON VOIGHT NAMES STEVEN PAUL AS SPECIAL ADVISOR TO HELP MAKE HOLLYWOOD GREAT AGAIN

LOS ANGELES , Feb. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- SP Media Group announced today that Jon Voight, recently appointed by President Trump as a Special Ambassador to Hollywood alongside Sylvester Stallone and Mel Gibson, has named Steven Paul as his Special Advisor.

Paul, who is Voight's longtime business partner, shared their vision to find ways to work with Hollywood and the global film community to make pro-American films that celebrate old-fashioned family values and uplifting messages.

"We look forward to collaborating with Jon Voight's fellow Ambassadors Sylvester Stallone and Mel Gibson and we will be working within the industry to find ways to bring runaway productions back to America while working with the government to explore a potential federal tax incentive tied to a pro-American cultural standard, among other initiatives that support independent American productions, producers, talent and crew in the fields of film, television, post production, visual effects and AI," says Paul. "We will also collaborate with international film agencies to boost productions worldwide, provided they align with and support the new 'America First' initiative." "Jon Voight and I had dinner with the President this weekend and there are a number of ideas being worked on that we are looking forward to discussing with the entertainment community and Voight's fellow Ambassadors Stallone and Gibson and then bring to the President for his input and guidance".
