What the Trump biopic ‘The Apprentice’ got right, and what’s fiction

• Warning: Spoilers ahead for “The Apprentice,” the new Donald Trump biopic.
• The controversial movie opened in US theaters on October 11.
• Business Insider has broken down how accurate the movie is.

“The Apprentice” lets audiences know from the beginning that some of the events they’re about to see have been “fictionalized for dramatic purposes.”

The new Donald Trump biopic sees Marvel star Sebastian Stan portray a young Trump as he makes a name for himself in 1970s New York.

It focuses on his relationships with his mentor, the political fixer Roy Cohn (Jeremy Strong); his father, Fred Trump (Martin Donovan); and his first wife, Ivana Trump (Maria Bakalova).

The controversial film faced a storied struggle to get into theaters in the US, with Trump attempting to block its release.

After it eventually hit US theaters on October 11, the former president called it a “FAKE and CLASSLESS Movie.”

Business Insider has taken a look at how accurate it really is.

A representative for Trump did not respond to a request for comment from Business Insider.
