Sebastian Stan Stars in The Apprentice Film

As the 2024 presidential election approaches, Jon Stewart criticized Donald Trump's attempts to halt the film 'The Apprentice', which portrays Trump's rise to power, labeling it as election interference. The film, featuring Sebastian Stan as a young Trump, has already premiered at Cannes and screened at Telluride despite Trump's cease-and-desist order. Stan admitted in a recent interview that he unintentionally carried some of Trump's mannerisms into his role as Bucky Barnes in the upcoming 'Thunderbolts', noting the challenges of transitioning between the two characters. 'The Apprentice' explores Trump's early career, highlighting his relationship with lawyer Roy Cohn, and is set to release in theaters on October 11. Stan's preparation for the role involved extensive immersion in Trump's mannerisms, which he humorously described as 'sleeping with Trump' during his research process. The film aims to shed light on the influences that shaped Trump's persona, particularly through Cohn's mentorship.
