The Trump campaign has threatened to sue the filmmakers of The Apprentice, a biopic about the former president’s early days as a New York City real estate developer, calling the movie a “pure fiction.”
“We will be filing a lawsuit to address the blatantly false assertions from these pretend filmmakers,” Trump campaign chief spokesperson Steven Cheung said in a statement to Variety.
“This garbage is pure fiction which sensationalizes lies that have been long debunked. As with the illegal Biden Trials, this is election interference by Hollywood elites, who know that President Trump will retake the White House and beat their candidate of choice because nothing they have done has worked.”
The film, directed by Ali Abbasi, features Sebastian Stan playing a young Donald Trump as he rises through the business world.
The story centers on his relationships with his first wife, Ivana Trump, and the lawyer and fixer Roy Cohn, played by Succession’s Jeremy Strong.
The Independent has contacted the producers of The Apprentice film for comment.
The biopic reportedly contains a variety of unflattering scenes involving Mr Trump, featuring him using drugs and getting cosmetic surgery.
Most controversially, according to Variety, the film shows Mr Trump raping Ms Trump.
(In a 1989 divorse deposition, Ms Trump accused Mr Trump of raping her, but she later disavowed the allegation.)
