Briarcliff Entertainment released a clip of the young Donald Trump drama “The Apprentice.”
After struggling to drum up interest following its Cannes Film Festival premiere, the movie starring Sebastian Stan as the former president, has found a distributor that plans to release the film shortly before the election in November.
“The Apprentice” will debut in theaters on Oct. 11.
Part of what dampened interest was the potential threat of legal action.
After its Cannes premiere in May, Mr. Trump’s reelection campaign spokesperson called the movie “pure fiction” and said the Trump team would file a lawsuit “to address the blatantly false assertions from these pretend filmmakers.”
“The Apprentice” chronicles Mr. Trump’s rise to power in New York real estate under the tutelage of defense attorney Roy Cohn.
