Taika Waititi has told Americans "don't even think about moving to New Zealand" after Donald Trump was confirmed as the new US president.
The Kiwi director of Boy and Hunt For the Wilderpeople took to Twitter after Trump's win over Hillary Clinton was cemented during yesterday's US elections.
He started by asking what the quickest way was to "get my money out of your country".
Welcome to 1933, America!

Ps. What's the quickest way to get my money out of your country?
He then questioned whether he'd be allowed back to America to edit his upcoming film Thor: Ragnarok.

Don't even think about moving to New Zealand. You shat the bed, now you have to deal with the mess.
