'The Apprentice' Moving Toward U.S. Deal With Briarcliff To Release Cannes Sensation On Donald Trump & Roy Cohn
Directed by Ali Abbasi and written by Gabriel Sherman, the film stars Sebastian Stan as Donald Trump and Jeremy Strong as his mentor lawyer Roy Cohn in a film that traces the formative years of the former president who’ll take another run at the White House this fall.

Partial financier is former Washington Commanders owner Snyder, a Trump supporter who also has disparaged the film.
