Terrence Howard Ordered To Pay $900k In Back Taxes

A federal judge in Philadelphia has ordered Hollywood actor, Terrence Howard to pay nearly $1 million in back taxes.

This is coming after he allegedly threatened a Justice Department lawyer and maintained that it was immoral for the United States government to charge taxes to the descendants of slaves.

And after a court hearing last week in Philadelphia, U.S. District Judge John F. Murphy granted the government’s request to enter a $903,115 default judgment against the actor.

Recall that Terrence voided efforts by the IRS to collect $578,000 in income taxes they say he failed to pay between 2010 and 2019, leading the Justice Department to sue him in 2022.

WOW.

The cinema of the United States, consisting mainly of major film studios (also known metonymously as Hollywood) along with some independent films, has had a large effect on the global film industry since the early 20th century.

The dominant style of American cinema is classical Hollywood cinema, which developed from 1910 to 1962 and is still typical of most films made there to this day.

Hollywood is considered to be the oldest film industry, in the sense of being the place where the earliest film studios and production companies emerged. It is the birthplace of various genres of cinema —among them comedy, drama, action, the musical, romance, horror, science fiction, and the epic—and has set the example for other national film industries.

Many of Hollywood’s highest-grossing movies have generated more box-office revenue and ticket sales outside the United States than films made elsewhere. The United States is a leading pioneer in motion picture engineering and technology.
