Amazon has paid $40 million for a documentary of Melania Trump’s life story in Jeff Bezos’s latest attempt to ingratiate himself with the president-elect.

News of the documentary was first broken by Semafor, which noted that the production has already begun shooting and is expected to enjoy a brief theatrical run before coming to Amazon’s streaming service,

One of the biggest names attached to the project is Brett Ratner, who will return to the director's chair after living in relative obscurity since 2019, when several women accused him of sexual abuse and misconduct — claims he has denied.
