Melania Goes to Hollywood Courtesy of Jeff Bezos and a #MeToo Director [View all]

The project will be directed by Brett Ratner, a director accused by multiple women of sexual misconduct.

Melania Trump is headed to the big screen.

Somewhat. Amazon Studios has licensed a documentary on the incoming first lady that promises an “unprecedented, behind-the-scenes look” at her life, it said in a statement to Fox News.

The documentary, scheduled to premiere in theaters and on streaming in the second half of 2025, is directed by Brett Ratner and executive produced by Trump and Fernando Sulichin. It began filming last month.

While any exclusive look into the former-turned-future first lady’s life would be highly sought after by any outlet, the choice to pick up the film is the latest in a series of public efforts by Jeff Bezos, Amazon, and several of his companies to warm up to President-elect Donald Trump and his family after years of feuding.
