Ali Abbasi’s movie “The Apprentice” depicts the beginning of Donald Trump’s journey to become one of the world’s most powerful men.
Sebastian Stan takes on the role of Trump and for his design he has been nominated for an Oscar for best male actors. Even Jeremy Strong playing Trump’s couple horse Roy Roy Cohn has a chance to an Oscar for best male supporting role. Whether the statue goes to any of them remains to be seen, however, Ali Abbasi does not believe that the Oscars jury will dare to vote for his trump design.
“The Apprentice” has upset Donald Trump. Even before the premiere, he threatened to sue both Abbasi and the film, at the same time as a spokesman for Trump said he was “furious” on the film.
