First Footage From Damning Trump Movie Released

Despite Donald Trump’s efforts to shut down the soon to be released Ali Abbasi film The Apprentice, the film is still drumming up buzz as a new clip dropped Tuesday that shows the former president decades prior (Sebastian Stan), as he’s coached through an interview by his late friend and lawyer Roy Cohn (played by Succession’s Jeremy Strong).

In the first clip from the film, which has a tentative release date of October 11, Trump and Cohn share the back of a town car as Cohn bullies a reporter into interviewing Trump. “About a 100 reporters were crawling up my ass to get this interview and I gave you the exclusive,” the Cohn character says, handing Trump the phone.

Cohn then encourages Trump to use more grandiose language as speaks to said reporter, just after settling his racial discrimination lawsuit for he and his father’s housing practices. “I’m planning on making the best and the finest building,” Stan says as Trump, “in the city—maybe the country,” and then at Cohn’s direction he adds, “in the world.”
