Jeremy Strong disappointed by Hollywood

Jeremy Strong, who became a sought-after actor in Hollywood after his performance in the series Successionhowever, he does not intend to comply. Very committed to his roles, to the point of annoying his partners in the hit HBO, Jeremy Strong doesn’t pretend and was therefore sincere in the columns of The Times of London when discussing The Apprenticebiopic about Donald Trump in which he plays Roy Cohnbusinessman’s mentor and advocate in his early days in the 1970s.

Directed by Ali Abbasi, The Apprentice focuses on the relationship between the two men, Roy Cohn and Donald Trump (Sebastian Stan), in a film highly critical of the man who would go on to become the 45th president of the United States. And in this interview, Jeremy Strong reveals that no major studio wanted to support the project.

I find the film deeply disturbing and darkly a harbinger of things to come. Honestly, everyone in Hollywood ignored it for fear of controversy or repercussions. I don’t think Hollywood has ever been a bastion of courage, but it was still disappointing.

Donald Trump tried to block the film’s release

After its presentation in competition at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival, the film was targeted by Donald Trump, who publicly denounced it and threatened legal action, trying to prevent its release. An approach that had no chance of success, but the 2024 presidential candidate could not miss the opportunity to say that he was persecuted, shamefully and falsely represented in The Apprentice.

The Apprenticewhose release is scheduled for October 9th in France and October 11th in the United States, will it become the subject of the campaign that pits Kamala Harris against Donald Trump, who is determined to return to the White House? Reply very soon.
