The Apprentice - Donald Trump¡¯s reality show
An American reality television show called The Apprentice evaluated a group of competitors' business acumen. From 2004 to 2017, it was shown on NBC in a variety of formats for fifteen seasons. British television producer Mark Burnett co-produced The Apprentice with Donald Trump, who hosted the program during its first fourteen seasons.
When NBC disagreed with Trump's comments on Mexican immigrants during his June 16, 2015, announcement that he was running for president of the United States, the studio dismissed him as the host. In September 2015, it was revealed that former California governor and actor Arnold Schwarzenegger would take over as host of The Celebrity Apprentice in January 2017.
The Apprentice - Donald Trump¡¯s biopic
The Apprentice, a 2024 biographical film, explores Donald Trump's relationship with lawyer Roy Cohn and his career as a real estate tycoon in New York City throughout the 1970s and 1980s. Sebastian Stan plays Trump, Jeremy Strong plays Cohn, Martin Donovan plays Trump's father Fred, and Maria Bakalova plays Trump's first wife, Ivana. The film was directed by Ali Abbasi and written by Gabriel Sherman.
The film¡¯s release after delay
Due to its subject matter and an effort by Trump's legal team to prevent its release, the film struggled to secure American distribution after making its debut on May 20, 2024, at the 77th Cannes Film Festival. Ultimately, Briarcliff Entertainment purchased the rights, and on October 11, 2024, it was released in theaters.
The movie is mostly factual but it does reimagine a few bits and guess what? It opened to majorly positive reviews.
