‘The Apprentice’ Director Taunts Donald Trump Over Biopic Lawsuit Threat
HuffPost
Ali Abbasi pointed out an awkward truth for the former president.
Ali Abbasi, the Iranian-Danish director of the new Donald Trump biopic “The Apprentice,” had a mocking response when a journalist asked if he was “scared” of the Trump 2024 campaign’s threat to sue over the movie.
“I mean, everybody talks about him suing a lot of people,” Abassi replied during a press conference after a screening at the Cannes Film Festival this week.
Then he added: “They don’t talk about his success rate though, you know?”
The remark prompted applause and laughter from the audience.
