Former President Donald Trump's team has sent a cease and desist letter to the producers of the Cannes hit film "The Apprentice," attempting to halt its distribution in the U.S. The film, directed by Ali Abbasi, portrays a dramatized account of Trump's relationship with Roy Cohn and has been described as defamatory and a concoction of lies by Trump's lawyers. The producers have responded, stating that the film is a fair and balanced portrait of the former president and inviting Trump to attend the premiere. Despite legal threats, the Supreme Court's protection of films under the First Amendment is noted, and there is speculation about potential challenges in securing a U.S. distribution deal for the film.
