From what I've read, Daily Wire was actually trying to do this. Not conservative by the standards of here, but definitely to the right of Hollywood.

Anyway, apparently the problem is once you work with them, you're obviously a conservative and you'll never get another Hollywood job-and the arts are always economically precarious. (There are famous examples like John Milius; the only counterexample I can think of was Clint Eastwood, who was partially riding on his success from an earlier era.) You actually have to throw enough money into the conservative ecosystem that they can survive on just that. No actor's going to take a job that's going to be his last.

Well if they can't get a job anyway what do the non DEI writers, directors, etc. have to lose? Perhaps they could find a non mainstream niche to make a living in.

Daily Wire is controlled opp. Israeli-Deep State created, funded, and promoted. Cuckservative-NeoCon to the core. E.g. when Pearl of Pearl Daily went on to argue for mandatory nationwide paternity testing for all newborns to prevent men from being saddled with child support for kids who weren't there's, loser cuck Michael Knowles went apesh*t, claiming Pearl was calling his wife a wh*re. Here's the clip: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/SoDtV6ZbVrk

As to Milius, he survived largely because (1) Jewish; (2) was close friends with all the greats of his age (e.g. Coppola, Spielberg); (3) the man could write a masculine scene for a picture like no other of his age. Anytime one of his director friends hit a wall with a scene that needed something macho, they called Milius up and he'd solve it in an incredibly artistic and yet simple way.

Eastwood survives by never taking a day off, by being a legend, by always bringing movies in under budget that make money, and because he's a social lefty: loves abortion (his ex-partner Sandra Locke k*lled their kid in the womb), fine with the homos, etc.
