What to expect in The Apprentice?

Described as an exploration of power and ambition, The Apprentice will be directed by Iranian filmmaker Ali Abbas from a screenplay being written by Gabriel Sherman. It is executive produced by Grant S. Johnson, Gabriel Sherman, Amy Baer, Mark Rapaport, and Emanuel Nuñez. Producers are Daniel Bekerma, Jacob Jarek, and Ruth Treacy of Taylored.

“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 Roy Cohn,” reads the synopsis. “It’s a mentor-protege story that charts the origins of a major American dynasty. Filled with larger than life characters, it reveals the moral and human cost of a culture defined by winners and losers.”
