The Cannes premiere of 'The Apprentice' sparks a legal battle between Trump's campaign and the filmmakers. Find out what the buzz is all about!
The Cannes Film Festival took an unexpected turn with the premiere of 'The Apprentice,' a biopic depicting Donald Trump's early years in the 1980s. The Trump campaign quickly branded the film as 'pure fiction' and threatened legal action, calling it 'blatantly false.' Director Ali Abbasi faced backlash as critics lauded the film for its brutal portrayal of the former president's controversial past, including his ties to Roy Cohn.
Despite the controversy, Abbasi remains unfazed by the Trump campaign's threats and even offered to screen the movie for the man himself. Starring Sebastian Stan as a young Trump and Jeremy Strong as his mentor Roy Cohn, 'The Apprentice' has captured attention for its uncompromising depiction of Trump's rise to power.
In a surprising twist, film investor and Trump supporter Dan Snyder reportedly expressed anger over the movie's portrayal of the former president. Critics have praised Sebastian Stan's performance in the film, hailing it as a compelling and insightful take on Trump's early years. The buzz around 'The Apprentice' continues to grow, with audiences divided over its controversial yet captivating narrative.
In the realm of biopics and political dramas, 'The Apprentice' has sparked heated debate and legal threats, solidifying its place as a contentious yet impactful film at Cannes. As the battle between the Trump campaign and the filmmakers rages on, the movie's brutal honesty and unapologetic portrayal of Trump's past have cemented its status as a must-watch in the world of cinema.
