Billed as an exploration of power and ambition, set in a world of corruption and deceit, The Apprentice will examine Trump’s efforts to build his real estate business in New York in the ’70s and ’80s, also digging into his relationship with infamous attorney Cohn. It’s a mentor-protege story that charts the origins of a major American dynasty. Filled with larger-than-life characters, it will reveal the moral and human cost of a culture defined by winners and losers.

Maria Bakalova is starring as Ivana Trump and Martin Donovan is Fred Trump in the movie from Iranian-Danish director Abbasi, who most recently had Holy Spider in Cannes competition.

In the past hour, Abbasi’s movie has been revealed as part of the Cannes selection alongside the likes of Francis Coppola’s Megalopolis, David Cronenberg’s The Shrouds and Andrea Arnold’s Bird.
