Premiering at the 77th Cannes Film Festival, The Apprentice will hit theatres across India on October 18. Starring Sebastian Stan as Donald Trump, Jeremy Strong as the influential fixer Roy Cohn, and Maria Bakalova as Trump’s first wife, Ivana.

The Apprentice takes an unflinching look at the darker side of the American business empire, chronicling Donald Trump’s early rise in the real estate world.

Through their complicated relationship, the film exposes the intricate and shadowy forces that helped propel Trump to the forefront of American politics.

Speaking about his upcoming release, director Ali Abbasi revealed, “This is not a History Channel episode.” Further talking about this non-conventional film he added, “This is not a biopic of Donald Trump. We’re not interested in every detail of his life going from A to Z. We’re interested in telling a very specific story through his relationship with Roy and Roy’s relationship with him.”

The Apprentice offers a dramatic and insightful portrayal of Donald Trump's rise to power. Witness the film that promises to be a compelling exploration of ambition, power, and influence as it unfolds on the big screen on October 18.
