Donald Trump Movie Director Is Staying at Trump’s NYC Hotel, Says Their Suite Is ‘Dirty’: ‘It’s Not as Luxurious as You Would Think’


Ali Abbasi, director of the Donald Trump movie 'The Apprentice,' is staying a Trump hotel for the film's New York City premiere.

So I think this is a marriage made in heaven,” the Iranian-Danish filmmaker said with a laugh Monday afternoon during a Zoom video call from his hotel room. At the same time, the Trump campaign threatened legal action over the movie with a spokesman blasting the film as “garbage” and “fiction.” “The Apprentice” includes depictions of Trump popping amphetamine pills, getting liposuction, having surgery to remove his bald spot and a scene in which he violently throws Ivanka to the ground and proceeds to have nonconsensual sex with her.
