Sebastian Stan kæmper med Trump-mani: ''Skulle ligge på sofaen og se reality-tv''

Ali Abbasi - Donald Trump - Hollywood Biopic - Jeremy Strong - Roy Cohn - Sebastian Stan - The Apprentice

Find ud af hvordan Sebastian Stan, der spiller Donald Trump i den kommende film 'The Apprentice', håndterede sin rolle og de uventede udfordringer den medførte!

Sebastian Stan, kendt for sin rolle som Bucky Barnes i Marvel-universet, står over for en ny udfordring: At portrættere den kontroversielle tidligere præsident Donald Trump i den kommende film "The Apprentice". Stan, der forbereder sig på sin rolle, afslører, at han kæmper med at lægge nogle af Trumps karaktertræk fra sig efter optagelserne. For mange er det svært at forstå, hvordan det kan være en udfordring at spille en person, der længe har været i offentlighedens søgelys, men Stan måtte bruge usædvanlige metoder i sin forberedelse. Ifølge ham gik der ikke en dag uden, at han smed sig på sofaen for at binge-watche reality-tv, for at fange essensen af den kendte lillefinger-afslappende præsident.

Men Sebastian Stan er ikke den eneste, der har haft en udfordrende rejse i forbindelse med "The Apprentice". Jeremy Strong, der spiller den berygtede politiske fixer Roy Cohn i filmen, har også taget en dybdegående tilgang til sin rolle. Strong har næret en målrettet forståelse af sin karakter, hvilket inkluderer at udforske de mere menneskelige træk ved Cohn og ikke blot fokusere på hans kyniske side. Dette lag af empati har tilføjet en ny dimension til filmen, der ser på Trumps tidlige karriere som ejendomsmægler i New York i 70'erne og 80'erne.

Filmens instruktør, Ali Abbasi, har valgt at bo på Trump International Hotel i New York under filmens premiere, en beslutning, der ikke er uden drama. Kritikken omkring hotellet og dets fem-stjernet status har fået folk til at spekulere på, hvordan Abbasi vil få filmen til at resonere med offentligheden. I et interview nævnte han, at han finder nogle skemaer og metoder i hotellet noget overdrevet, men kan ikke lade være med at distance sig fra kontroverserne, der følger med mediet og personen Trump.

"The Apprentice" er udfordrende i sin tilgang, idet den ryster i både Trumps legende persona og muligheden for at opnå respekt i filmverdenen. Det er bestemt en film, Trump selv tilsyneladende ikke ønsker at ses; det er en historie, der skildrer hans opstigning som ejendomsmogul og hvordan hændelser i fortiden kan spille ind i nutiden.

Vidste du, at filmen får premiere næsten samtidig med, at Donald Trump selv yder sin kandidatur til præsidentvalget? Dette har fået nogle politiske eksperter til at kalde filmen for en form for 'valginvasion'. Derudover kan du finde Sebastian Stan i to meget forskellige roller, når han både spiller Trump og superheroen Bucky Barnes - det er svært at se, hvordan han ikke skulle få en dose af Trumps manerer med sig!
