Sebastian Stan’sThe Apprenticehas been a hot topic of discussion since its announcement. It is based on the early career of former President Donald Trump as a New York-based real estate businessman. The film recently garnered a lot of attention after its premiere at the 77th Cannes Film Festival.
While the Sebastian Stan biopic was a critical hit at Cannes and even welcomed an 8-minute standing ovation, it has angered one of its key investors, Daniel Snyder.
The Apprentice, directed by Ali Abbasi, largely focuses on Donald Trump’s relationship with his first wife, Ivana Trump, and the New York City prosecutor Roy Cohn. The movie has allegedly portrayed the former President in a bad light, which left Dan Snyder fuming with anger.
What led Daniel Snyder to go against Sebastian Stan’sThe Apprentice?
Daniel Snyder is one of the most controversial American businessmen and the former owner of the NFL team, Washington Commanders. As perVariety, he has been one of the primary donors inDonald Trump‘s presidential campaigns. In 2016, he donated a massive $1.1 million to his inaugural committee. He also donated another $100,000 during Trump’s 2020 campaign.

WhenThe Apprenticewas shown to Dan Snyder, the Billionaire was reportedly unhappy and enraged. According to sources, theSebastian Stanbiopic allegedly features a scene where Donald Trump s*xually assaults Ivana Trump.
It is to be noted that Ivana Trump accused the former POTUS of r*ping her during their much-publicized divorce in 1989. However, to everyone’s surprise, Trump’s late wife denied her claims in an interview withCNNin 2015. Before her unfortunate demise in 2022, Ivana Trump stated that the story lacked any“merit”.

The Apprenticehas also reportedly shown Donald Trump to have undergone several cosmetic procedures. As Dan Snyder’s attempts to create a positive image of Trump throughThe Apprenticebackfired badly, he has been subjected to immense trolling onXas well. Although the Kinematics president Emanuel Nuñez has directly stated that Snyder is not involved with the film, the 59-year-old billionaire has a financial stake in the company owned by his son-in-law (seeNew Republic).
