We perceive the movie will probably be “kinder” to POTUS than The Apprentice, the Oscar-nominated biopic starring Jeremy Sturdy and Sebastian Stan. Trump’s staff famously took umbrage at that film and tried to have it blocked from launch.
The Andrea Iervolino Firm’s description of the venture is “a serious new biographical movie centered on the life and legacy of Donald J. Trump — actual property mogul, tv icon, and forty fifth and forty seventh President of the USA.” It’s not clear if Iervolino has reached out to Trump’s staff.

Andrea Iervolino commented: “Whether or not one agrees or disagrees along with his politics, there’s no denying Donald Trump’s affect on the fashionable period. As a producer, I’m enthusiastic about exploring the deeper story of the person — the rise, the challenges, the resilience. Our purpose is to ship a movie that’s daring, balanced, and artistically bold.”
Iervolino’s biopics to this point embrace Ferrari, Lamborghini: The Man Behind the Legend, Maserati: The Brothers, and The Music of Silence about singer Andrea Bocelli. He’s quickly to enter manufacturing on Al Pacino film Captivated concerning the kidnapping of John Paul Getty III.
